Dust off your lederhosen, dirndls and beer steins and head to the Brandywine for an outdoor Oktoberfest celebration in the Museum’s courtyard. Family, friends, and canine companions are all welcome. Enjoy a selection of craft beers from 2SP Brewing Company; dine on a delectable menu of German-inspired fare by Chef Justin Rumsey, Executive Chef of the Brandywine’s Millstone Café; and tap your feet to live music by the Moondawgs. And speaking of dogs, be sure to bring your favorite pooch along for the fun—bonus barking points for Oktoberfest dog costumes!
