OKTOBERFEST

Oktoberfest is back at Surly, bigger and bolder than ever – all while being a completely free event. Be here from September 12th-24th and see how we don't fest like the rest.

BEER

There are a lot of German beer styles—we should know, because we’re making most of them. Not only do you get keg after keg of Oktoberfest Lager, you also can fill a stein with Weizenbock, Dampfbier, Hefeweizen, Dopplebock, SurlyFest Rye Lager, Smoked Helles, Maibock, and more. $8 stein fills.

FOOD

For a span of two weeks, we'll be introducing Reuben Frites, pork schnitzel, cabbage rolls, and chicken spaetzle to our menu. Additionally, during the weekends, our Food Truck will be serving turkey legs and doner kebabs to the customers enjoying our beer garden.

ENTERTAINMENT

Our Oktoberfest weekends will feature live music and activities to keep the fest at its best. Local rock, pop, and hip-hop acts provide the soundtrack, while stein races and gelande quaffing will test your stamina and hand/eye coordination in the most beer-forward way possible. Please, no wagering.

SMOKED HELLES

SMOKED HELLES | 4.5% ABV

As traditional as it gets, this crisp and refreshing German lager uses smoked malt to add a campfire grace note. And you don’t have to fly all the way to Bamberg to enjoy one!

DAMPFBIER

GERMAN ALE | 5.5% ABV

The German equivalent of a steam beer (“Dampf” equals “steam”), Surly’s version is brewed with Saaz hops, nudging a little hoppiness into the mix, along with some orange-clove aromatics.

SURLYFEST

DRY-HOPPED RYE LAGER | 6% ABV

A dry-hopped rye lager with an earthy, biscuity flavor profile. Brought back exclusively for our Oktoberfest celebration. 

HEFEWEIZEN

HEFEWEIZEN | 5.3% ABV

Our take on a traditional hefeweizen, with ample fruity character and notes of clove and bubblegum.

OKTOBERFEST

LAGER | 6% ABV

Rich, sweet, and malty up front, dry and clean on the finish with an ever-so-slight touch of hops. Prost!

THE EDICT

BERLINER WEISSE | 3.8% ABV

Brewed by Chad Arnhold as part of our brewer-focused Intelligent Design series, this traditional sour also gives you cranberry and woodruff flavor options.

WEIZENBOCK

WEIZENBOCK | 8.6% ABV

Weizenbock marries the refreshing character and ester profile of a Weissebier with the malty, brawny punch of a doppelbock.

DOPPELBOCK

DOPPELBOCK | 8.0% ABV

Barkeep: Make mine a double. This malty, double bock monster is the ideal festival beer. Rich with bready sweetness, it also has a complex malt flavor that ends with a dry, warming finish.
