Soulard Oktoberfest Benevolent

On the weekend of October 11, thousands of Deutschlandishly whimsical folks will celebrate German culture with cold, frothy beer and traditional German food at Soulard Oktoberfest, one of the Top 3 fests in the country. Frauleins fill mugs to overflowing with pilsners and lagers from Paulaner, Kulmbacher, and Schlafly, all poured from a stockpile of kegs and one beer-granting genie. In between mingling with friends, guests can appease their appetites with steaming bratwursts, German pretzels, roasted turkey legs, and other mouth-watering provender, along with a round of Jägermeister. To top it all off, the festivities get a hearty dose of Bavarian-style music played by live bands such as the Polkanauts, Deutschmeister Brass Band, and The Dorfrockers, one of Germany's premier party bands.
