LOVELAND, CO – September  2, 2015– Loveland Oktoberfest returns to Grimm Brothers Brewhouse this year with a two day format instead of one. “We want to give people a chance to come out and have a good time on Friday or Saturday or both if they want to” said Russell Fruits with Grimm Brothers Brewhouse.

The event will feature beer from seven Loveland craft breweries including Verboten, Loveland Aleworks, Crow Hop, Big Beaver, Buckhorn, Big Thompson, and of course Grimm Brothers. Beer will be sold in several locations and allowed anywhere inside the fenced area. Food vendors will include Gunter’s Bavarian Grill, The Road Grill, Bottlecap BBQ, and Styria Bakery. Live local music will begin on Friday evening with a polka band from the CSU Music Department called Neue Polka Colorado. Saturday’s line up will feature Denver polka band Steve Rock’s Tanzkapelle and local favorites Cable Ten and Harvestmen. Wear your dirndl and lederhosen for the best dresses contest at 2:00 on Saturday and hold those steins high for the stein hoisting contest at 4:30. Other games will be run by the Loveland, Big Thompson Kiwanis Club and include hammerschlagen, Loveland Mobile Mini Golf, corn hole, carpet ball, ladder ball, washer toss, and more. All money raised from playing games will go directly to Kiwanis Club.

“This is going to be a lot of fun, I’d highly encourage people to bring friends and family and come and enjoy this community event.” said Rose Schlosser with Grimm Brothers. “There will be something for everyone to enjoy.”

Loveland Oktoberfest will be celebrated on Friday September 18th from 3:00 – 9:00 PM and Saturday September 19th from 12:00 – 9:00 PM at 623 Denver Ave. Loveland, CO 80537. The event is free to attend and all ages are welcome.
