McMenamins Anderson School Oktoberfest

A free, all-ages Oktoberfest at the converted 1930s junior high that McMenamins runs in downtown Bothell. Three acts play the Shed through the afternoon and evening, including an oompah band, while the kitchens put out currywurst, a Bavarian-styled chicken sandwich and Black Forest cake. The draw for regulars is the chain's Oktoberfest Lager, brewed once a year for this celebration.
