Williamsburg Alt-Toberfest Offers Brews, Live Music and Stein-Hoisting Competition

AltToberfestWe’re closing out the fall Fest season with a bang! We know Oktoberfest is over, so on Saturday, October 26th from noon to 9 p.m., we’ll be co-producing an “alt” experience with BBQ, craft beer, tap dancing and a Sam Adams Stein-hoisting competition, featuring Chili Takedown maestro Matt Timms as MC!

  • Undertoe Dance will be giving “Tappy Hour” tap-dancing demonstrations at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m.
