Temecula Oktoberfest at Stone Church Brewing

You found this. Be the first one here.

There's a version of Oktoberfest that's a theme-park approximation - a playlist standing in for a band, novelty steins, the German harvest tradition flattened into a costume. Then there's this. Stone Church is the kind of place Oktoberfest was invented for: the taproom opens straight onto the brewery floor, the food is the real thing, and the music is played by people who actually know what Oktoberfest sounds like. Temecula in October gives the whole night its setting - wine country hills in the distance, the exact evening temperature that makes being outside feel like a gift, and Old Town's walkable blocks that make extending the night the obvious move. Come before the first pour. Stay until the evening decides it's done. This is the Inland Valley's version of what Oktoberfest was always meant to be - a local celebration in a real place, with real beer and real music. Stone Church Brewing, Old Town Temecula. October 10th. See stonechurchbrewing.com for event details.
