Hackettstown Hosts Oktoberfest Celebration

The Hackettstown BID will put on a three-day Oktoberfest celebration  Friday through Sunday, September 29 through October 1, 2018, as Bea McNally’s, Czig Meister Brewing Co., Homebrew University, and Man Skirt Brewing host activities, contests, live music groups, drinks and food at their Platz through regular operating hours.

Each brewery will feature special Oktoberfest-inspired beer. Local businesses and vendors from neighboring areas will be on-site featuring art, crafts, and home and living services.

This year Bea McNally’s will kick off Oktoberfest by hosting "The Rock of New Jersey" 105.5 WDHA on Friday, September 28, 2018 from 5-7 p.m. WDHA reaches a sizeable audience in a number of counties throughout Northern New Jersey. They will have their street team, prize wheel & games on site. Bea’s beer truck containing authentic German beers from Munich, Germany will host a keg tapping at 6 p.m. "LIVE" on WDHA 105.5!

Continuing the entertainment, Czig Meister also has a celebratory keg tapping on Saturday at 12:30 p.m., including a packed schedule of activities. Signup for activities and contests will be available at each Platz (brewery) corresponding to location. Sign-up begins at 12 p.m.
