We’re going big for Oktoberfest with a proper Bavarian knees-up! After two hugely successful years we've extended the main event to run over 2 days this October.

Rare to find in Ireland imports will begin landing into the Wine Centre & Sullivan's Taproom mid-September. Expect at least 6 German imports on tap alongside our brand-new Weissbier — plus a couple more special brews just for the occasion.
