Press Release from SeaWorld San Antonio:

SAN ANTONIO, TX (August 10, 2022) – SeaWorld San Antonio’s Bier Fest returns to Texas’ best theme park with a mix of traditional Oktoberfest flair and the contemporary craft beer scene on Friday, August 12. For five weeks, beer lovers can toast to the end of summer and beginning of autumn with over 50 domestic and international brews from 19 breweries, while pairing them with delectable bites to compliment them. This event runs Fridays through Sundays, plus Labor Day, through September 11. Bier Fest is included with park admission.

Delicious Drink and Food Offerings

Bier Fest offers plenty of cold brews on tap and in bottles to satisfy every beer connoisseur. Guests can get an authentic taste of German brews by sampling Spatan Lager, Optimater, Dunkel, Franzekaner Hefe, and Pilsner Urquell. For those whose pallets crave domestic beers, the festival will carry beers from breweries this side of the pond including Busted Sandal, Brewing Boston Beer, Four Corners Brewing Company, and Ranger Creek. For added fun and nostalgia, Yuengling, America’s oldest brewing company, will have their vintage truck on hand, during select dates, serving their Traditional Lager, Flight, and (new to the Texas market) Oktoberfest beers on tap, directly from the tricked-out vehicle! For added value, guests can purchase a Bier Fest sample lanyard allowing their choice of 10, seven-ounce samples from around festival for only $40.

Beer…or should we say Bier, isn’t the only feature on the menu during Bier Fest. Guests can savor a variety of mouthwatering dishes that can be perfectly paired with their brew of choice. Food offerings with a German flair include traditional bratwurst, Hofbrau chicken bratwurst, beer cheese spaetzle with sauteed onions, potato pancakes, apple strudel, pork or chicken schnitzel, and giant pretzels.

Festive Fun for the Family

Festival goers can also enjoy the musical celebration of Oktoberfest without having to travel to Germany! Live entertainment will pay homage to Bavarian traditions with a modern spin. West Coast Prost is not the average polka band and will bring an exciting sense of youth to an older tradition of music. The Alpine Express show combines the time-tested traditions of a German Oktoberfest with some of the most talented, colorful, and fun performers to take the stage. Along with the beer and pub food, these musical acts solidify Bier Fest as the perfect fall event for family and friends.  Prost!
