Appleton Farms Oktoberfest 2023

Practice holding a stein for Oktoberfest at Appleton Farms on October 14 and 15. The weekend-long festival will feature German-inspired food, lawn games, traditional German Hammerschlagen, and live music from oompah band Wunder Kapelle. Local breweries Notch Brewing, Essex County Brewing Company, True North Ale Company, Far From the Tree Cider, and 1634 Meadery will be on site serving up brews, and they’ll have a classic stein-holding competition, too. Timed entry tickets, at either noon or 2:30 p.m., go for $15 per car for members and $20 for nonmembers.
