Rocktoberfest Kickoff

Rock BottomI rarely get to Rock Bottom, as I rarely get to downtown Minneapolis. But next Thursday I’m hitting a show at First Ave (Neko Case if you’re interested), and it’s coincidentally RB’s Rocktoberfest release party! Plus, I’ll finally be able to try their Catcher in the Rye and Saison (if they’re not gone), two of my favorite styles of late.

Rocktoberfest Kickoff!
Join Brewer Bryon Tonnis on Thursday, September 18 as we kick off another Oktoberfest season with the tapping of our Rocktoberfest Marzen Bier at 6pm
Stop by for a complimentary pint and “toast the fest” with Rock Bottom…PROST!

    They will also be tapping The Knot on Thursday the 11th at 6pm. It’s a Pilsner that Bryon and his fiance made together to celebrate their upcoming wedding. I wish them the best.

    I had the Catcher in the Rye a few weeks ago. What a great beer.

    Heh, yet another soon to be married brewer. When does Colin tie the knot?

    Rock Bottom consitently puts out wonderful beers. And they have for years, but they are sometimes overlooked.

    Catcher in the Rye is still on for now – wonderful beer Saison is on – wonderful beer. The Knot is new – wonderful beer. Big Horn Nut Brown is always on – wonderful beer. The rest of the lineup is not so flashy but excellent for the styles. Rocktoberfest next week.

    And it is so close to MacKenzie’s, it is a good idea to hit both.

    The rest of

    Rocktoberfest next week…

    Sorry. Happy fingers hit ‘submit comment’ too early and too often. Pass me that growler, if you please…

    Hey Eric-I’m going to that concert too-I’ll try to stop by Rock Bottom as well (after going to a Summit Oktoberfest happy hour-I’ll be in tip top shape). Bryon does a swell job over there. Eric, we met at the Summit Movie Contest party, right?

  8. Eric says:

    Yup we did! See you at RB Thursday!

  9. Eric says:

    Damn, Catcher in the Rye is all gone. Guess I’ll be forced to drink the Saison 😉
