tuesday the 15th. damenweissen.
the first tuesday of oktoberfest has belonged to the women for as long as we can remember. maybe not that long. long enough. it is ours now.

Stephanie Grant • Social Media Strategist for Breweries is here. steins get lifted. a trophy changes hands. a pop-up market runs alongside, local, women-owned, worth lingering at. bier is still the first priority. same as always. same as it should be.

wednesday the 16th. trivia at 7pm. Geeks Who Drink asks the questions. you try to answer them.

thursday the 17th, something unusual: two things in two rooms at the same time. science trivia with Science ATL at 7pm. astronomy on tap with Astronomy on Tap - Atlanta at 7pm, a review of project hail mary, the book that made a lot of people cry on airplanes. pick a room. or stand in the doorway. we won’t tell you what to do.

sunday the 20th the biergarten becomes kinderfest. bouncy house. games. the elms overhead doing what the elms do. and if the breeze comes through right, and it might, it will feel briefly like it did before. you’ll know the feeling when it finds you.

good bier. good people. good days. 🌿

we kick off oktoberfest one leg at a time. follow the leder, saturday september 12, 11am.

a 5k out and back to the brewery, a classic parade route with modern legs.

At 12pm, a ceremonial Stichfaß tapping marks the real start of the season. mainline music after.

märzen alone might cover glycogen restoration. But we think the afternoon needs more than that.

oktoberfest food specials are back. pork schnitzel, currywurst, wurstplatte, more. swipe right to see the full bounty.

09/07/2026

the first tuesday of oktoberfest belongs to the women. always has, tradition says so and we’re not arguing.

a stein hoisting competition, trophy included, etched and kept. a women’s vendor pop up, wares laid out. b**r, first priority, for the ones who make this place work the other 364 days.

Stephanie Grant • Social Media Strategist for Breweries will be emceeing (or refereeing) the day’s festivitiy’s.

RUN CLUB + → KEG TAP →
MAINLINE MUSIC
Saturday, September 12. Race starts @ 11AM.

before it was a b**r festival it was a procession. a reason to march together. two centuries on, the inertia’s still there, encoded somewhere past memory.

lace up. lederhosen and dirndl recommended, festiveness may take other forms. run toward a finish line that isn’t one; it’s just where the day starts.

stichfass. mainline music. märzen, waiting on the other side in the biergarten, which is ready to receive you now.

A man, rendered in a mug. Is this containment, or is this arrival? We used to wonder the same thing about ourselves, before we understood that some vessels inspire stasis.

He has foam now. He has finally grown the mustache he was always meant to grow, given enough time and enough head.

He is not trapped. He is home.

Oktoberfest t-shirts. Coming soon to a biergarten near you.

the calendar fills in slowly, then all at once.

a grid of squares waiting to be known. that’s music bingo, monday nights, 7-9pm, tent classics on the frequency. loyalty club corner sits across the room, kniffel and skat, a table that remembers who sits at it.

saturday the 12th we start moving before we start drinking. run club, stichfass, mainline music. an old procession, new legs.

tuesday the 15th belongs to the women, always has. damenweissen. steins raised, held, not dropped. a trophy gets etched.

somewhere in there the kids get the inflatables and adults get the elms and the amber l***r and the line between whose oktoberfest it is gets soft.

love on the autobahn the knot, not the algorithm. strangers, a small pour, the wiesnwirt running the math on who fits.

little tart brings the gingerbread thursday the 1st, we bring the ribbons, you bring whatever’s true.

and the 26th, shoulder pads, the loop, the bassline that doesn’t ask permission.

it is time. again.

OKTOBERFEST // BEHOLD THE BEERS OF THE SEASON.

the elms are letting go of the summer green and going yellow
and red and orange, and we are doing something similar in the
glass.

five l***rs. all of them l***red. all of them for some time.
Atlanta water in every one of them. German malt in all of them. German hops and yeast in all of them.

and the liters are back, which happens now, and then does not
happen again until when its now again.

slide right, kindred spirit.

1: WHOLE CONE FEST MÄRZEN ~ Celebratory Hopfen L***r

we brew our Märzen and then, on the way to the fermenter, we
send the hot wort through a hop back packed with whole leaf
cones from our friends at SeitzFarm. the whole
flower, still in the shape it grew in.

this time brewed with Bamberg malt, whole cone SeitzFarm hops, german
yeast, and Atlanta water.

a field, briefly. new this year!

2: SHELL ~ German-style Schwarzbier

after the fall, we climb back into our a ghost without a Shell. or we start writing in the bash shell.
sometimes now automated, but that takes away the art!

an approachable, smooth, black l***r. bittersweet chocolate
and just a kiss of darkness.

a shell is the hard part around the soft part. in computing
it is the layer wrapped around the kernel, the part you
actually talk to. so talk to each other over this bier!

comfort, either way. beautiful perhaps; definitely delicious.

3: ALL CAPS ~ GERMAN-STYLE EXPORT HELLES. OUR PALE FESTBIER.

IT IS LIKE METRIC, LOUDER BUT STILL BALANCED. SUBTLE NOTES OF
ALL THE GOOD SPICY SEITZFARM VARIETIES, NOTABLY HERSBRUCKER. CLEAN AND ELEGANT.

THIS IS THE ONE THEY ACTUALLY DRINK IN MUNICH. EVERYONE
ASSUMES MÄRZEN. WE ARE NOT YELLING ABOUT IT. WE ARE SINGING
ABOUT IT ‧₊˚♪ 𝄞₊˚⊹

WE LOVE IT. WE LOVE YOU. 1 MAß PLEASE!

4: KELVIN ~ German-style Smoked Helles

smart and thoughtful. a nice subtle smoke. a beautiful and
elegant thing we look forward to every year.

there are many types of smoke signals but only one true way of
signaling and we think that is with bier and light hints of
smoke. it’s a Helles after all! the only noise in the morning
is the small fire crackling and the smoke blowing through the
malt. there is no one stirring.

A percentage smoked malt. So that makes this a rauchbier, right? some people may think it is too quiet. We think it is just right.

this is the bier the whole thing was built around, back in
2019, when it was one afternoon and not four weeks. We wanted to make something for ourselves that you would also hopefully drink.

5: FEST MÄRZEN ~ German-style Seasonal Amber L***r

the one everyone means when they say Oktoberfest.

beautifully bright and pleasantly malty; a soft floral hop
character; a clean, flavorful finish.

brewed with hops from our friends at SeitzFarm, Bamberg malt,
german yeast, and Atlanta water. l***red, and l***red.

when it comes to Oktoberfest, fill your liters with something clean and amber!

08/27/2026

It looks like an ordinary Tuesday out there right now.

Give it two weeks.

The tables fill. The glasses get one liter bigger, which
happens once a year and then does not happen again.

Fest Märzen, Helles for days, Bamberg malt, SeitzFarm hops. Whole cones run
through the hop back on the way to the fermenter. Kelvin,
a kiss of smoke, which in 2019 was one afternoon we
built to find out if anyone wanted it.

Seven years later we are still finding out.

The elms go yellow on their own schedule. We have never
been able to move it.

12 September through 4 October.
Halfway Crooks Cafe, Rooftop, and Biergarten.

Come early. The light at all hours does something.

we found a film about hops and we have been thinking about what gets through and what doesn’t. what was impossible. what is now possible. Active Low, now brewed with whole hop cones that have undergone a patented process to preserve the aromatic compounds that would otherwise be lost. a lot gets lost. not this time. the cone is still a cone. the lupulin is still there inside it, waiting, like it was always waiting. we brewed this and then we waited too. Hops from SetizFarm, malt from Bamberg, Atlanta Water. it is ready now. In person it’s even greater.
