Guiding Ethos
We believe that the consumption of good beer and good food are part of the joy of life. Brewing good beer is an ancient and honorable profession anchored in tradition. We honor the traditions of the past, while embracing the notion of Carpe Diem, or seize the day, for both beer and we are perishable. We believe that people today seek what our ancestors sought; well made, locally produced, flavorful food and beverages to be enjoyed with friends and family.

🍺🎉 ONLY A FEW MORE DAYS UNTIL OKTOBERFEST! 🎉🍺

THIS FRIDAY the countdown is over, and we couldn't be more excited to kick off THREE EPIC WEEKENDS of Oktoberfest at Utepils Brewing! We can't wait to celebrate with all of you and make this year's festival the biggest and best yet.

We're ready to witness the incredible strength in our Stein Holding Contests, the unstoppable appetites during our Pretzel Eating Contests, the brilliant minds taking on the German Spelling B, and the heartfelt moments as couples renew their vows during our Oktoberfest Wedding Vow Renewals—a tradition that honors the very roots of Oktoberfest itself.

But if we're being honest... one of the things we look forward to most every year is YOUR OUTFITS! ❤️

From classic lederhosen and beautiful dirndls to creative, one-of-a-kind twists on traditional Bavarian attire, you all continue to amaze us. Seeing thousands of people dressed for the occasion transforms the brewery into a little slice of Munich, and it's one of the most unforgettable parts of the celebration.

So dust off your dirndl, button up your lederhosen, grab your friends, and come show us how YOU Oktoberfest! 🍻

✨ Don't forget: Wear traditional Oktoberfest attire to any Saturday of Oktoberfest and you'll receive FREE ENTRY!

We are so ready to raise a stein with you. 🍺💙

In the meantime, it's Wednesday and we have Trivia Mafia from 7:00PM - 9:00PM!

See y'all soon!

Love. Laughter. A Stein Raised to Forever. ❤️🍻

Did you know that Oktoberfest began as a wedding celebration? In 1810, Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Bavaria invited the people of Munich to celebrate their marriage—and more than 200 years later, that tradition of love and celebration is still at the heart of Oktoberfest.

That’s why every Saturday during Utepils Brewing’s Oktoberfest, we invite couples to take part in one of our favorite traditions: Oktoberfest Vow Renewals.

Whether you’ve been married for one year or fifty, gather beneath the fest tent, hold hands, look into each other’s eyes, and renew the promises that brought you together. It’s a beautiful, heartfelt moment shared with friends, family, and hundreds of fellow Oktoberfest guests cheering you on.

Then, together, we’ll continue the celebration the best way we know how—with the ceremonial keg tapping, raising our steins in a heartfelt “Prost!” to your love, your commitment, and all the memories still to come.

Come celebrate where Oktoberfest began—with love at the center of it all. ❤️🍺

🗓️ Vow Renewals take place every Saturday during our Three Weekends of Oktoberfest! No matter your story, we’d be honored to celebrate it with you.

See y’all THIS WEEKEND!

Prost!
