Modelled on Munich’s world famous Oktoberfest, Tops at Spar Bierfest recreates the revellery, tradition, and of course the beer, of Bavarian beer festivals of old. Bierfest will be kicking off in Durban at Suncoast from 12 to 15 September 2013.
Now in its third year, Tops at Spar Bierfest is South Africa’s biggest beer festival. Founding partner South African Breweries, have once more called upon their Master Brewers to craft three limited-edition Bavarian-styled beers, exclusively brewed for Bierfest.
Beers include the always popular Royal Bavaria Oktoberfest Bier, the traditional Krystal Weiss Protea Edelweiss and the speciality dark ale…the King Ludwig Munich Dunkel. Master Brewers will be located onsite for tasting and beer education at Bierfest’s “Braumeister Ecke” – AKA Brewmasters’ Corner.
Bierfest is hosted inside a 2,500-seater Bavarian Brauhaus festooned with Bavarian décor from the Motherland. Revelers will be served in traditional style by costumed Frauleins bearing fistfuls of frothing beer steins to wash down mouth-watering Bavarian food, including pork knuckle (eisbein), german sausages, pickles, pretzels and sauerkraut.
Adding to the festive vibe, a world class entertainment program, including an authentic oompah band, will have you stomping your feet and raising your glasses in a toast to good times. Prost!
A smorgasbord of traditional Oktoberfest challenges will be on offer to test your strength and skill including the launch of Bierfest’s official sport…. Beer Pong! Be sure to dress up in your dirndl (durn-dell) and lederhosen because there will be competitions for the best dressed King Ludwig and Princess Therese at every show, with fantastic prizes to be won.
Bierfest encourages safe driving practices with the aptly named Cheers NO Gears! campaign, which includes rehydration stations and a designated driver rewards program through to Good Fellas memberships and preferred rates with Mozzie Cabs.
Tickets cost from R100 and the event is not open to anyone under the age of 18.
