KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. — What better way to welcome fall than with an Oktoberfest?
The Klamath Basin’s take on the traditional festival includes plenty of local brews, food, and live music, not to mention the contests.
There’s Stein holding, a best-dressed contest, and a People’s Choice Award for favorite drink. It all takes place on September 21 at the Bill Collier Ice Arena, 5075 Fox Sparrow Drive.
NBC5 News spoke with Event Manager, Andrew Stork who shared some insight on how they choose brewers for the event.
We try to have the beers that are served be representative of up-and-coming brewers, so we don’t lean into, you know, well-established brewers, like 10 barrel or something like that. Not that those aren’t great brands, but we want to be an opportunity for those breweries that are making a name for themselves to gain more and more exposure as they continue to grow.
Those interested can pick up tickets at the Klamath Basin Oktoberfest Celebration website for either $10 or $25.
