Oktoberfest Is Back at The Moose Preserve!

Break out the lederhosen and raise a glass. Oktoberfest is back at The Moose Preserve September 20–26, 2026!

For one week only, we’re celebrating with a special menu featuring German-inspired favorites, seasonal flavors and plenty of festive brews. Whether you’re stopping in for a giant pretzel and a beer or settling in for a full Oktoberfest dinner, there’s plenty to enjoy.

Raise a Glass to Oktoberfest

It wouldn’t be Oktoberfest without the beer! This year’s lineup includes Oberon, Sam Adams Octoberfest, Gumballhead American Wheat Pale Ale and Griffin Claw Screaming Pumpkin.

Prefer cider? We’ll also be pouring Blake’s Cider Mill Donut Hard Cider for a taste of fall in Michigan.

Start with an Oktoberfest Favorite

Kick things off with our Giant Pretzel, Bavarian-style and served with beer cheese.

You can also try our Roasted Garlic, served with sautéed peppers, sundried tomatoes, olive relish, Alouette cheese and toasted bread, or dig into Pierogies with sauerkraut, grilled onions and sour cream.

German-Inspired Entrées

Come hungry because we have three hearty entrées on the Oktoberfest menu.

The Wurst Dinner features two bratwurst links with sauerkraut, grilled onions, roasted apples, German potato salad and bread.

Our Pork Schnitzel starts with pork tenderloin pounded thin and breaded, then served with braised carrots, spätzle and house-made mushroom gravy.

And don’t miss Elvira’s Hungarian Goulash, made from Mrs. Michigan 1964’s winning recipe with beef, brown sugar, Hungarian paprika, Worcestershire and noodles.

Join Us September 20–26

Oktoberfest only comes around once a year, so make plans to celebrate at The Moose Preserve! Our special Oktoberfest menu will be available September 20–26, alongside all the warm, lodge-style atmosphere you already know and love.

Prost! We’ll see you at The Moose Preserve.
