A fun and festive Saturday (today, Sept. 26) is lined up from 12-6 p.m. in Rosemont’s @parkwaybankpark

Expect live authentic music from Paloma, German dancing by the Society of Danube Swabians Youth Group, plenty of fun competitions, and even live wood carving. The star of the show, however, might just be Crustoberfest, the signature Oktoberfest brew from @crustbrewing

The Parkway Bank Park venues will be selling food and drinks, dishing up their own fun twist on German cuisine (as well as some of their regular favorites). There will be picnic tables set up, but feel free to bring your own chairs or blankets. Parking for Rosetoberfest is available at the Parkway Bank Park parking garage and is free with validation from any of the park’s venues.

From our big fall issue...

Illinois Brewing Insider @briannoonan — host of the @craftybrewerspod — on the enjoyment of having @brothership_brewing and @black_horizon_brewing so close to home, the English pub ale at @pollyannabrewingcompany and Das Nuts at @imperialoakbrewing as well as the hidden gem in Homewood that is Lassen’s Tap, and discovering the laid-back @syndicatebrewingco in Colorado

“During their Oak-toberfest celebration (THIS WEEKEND!), Imperial Oak has a special tapping of Das Nuts, where they infuse their Das Boot Oktoberfest with toasted pecans, almonds, peanuts and macadamia nuts. If I could only drink one Oktoberfest beer, this would be it.”
