BEER POKING | 12-6 PM | FREE | Saturday @ Fest Field Spike your beer with a red-hot iron! Frank Kaszuba, Director of Brewing Operations, along with other members of the Earth Rider brewing team, will be onsite from 12-6 PM to procure the age-old tradition of inserting a red-hot steel rod into your cold Earth Rider Bock beer: caramelizing the residual sugars, thus making it even more delicious! A colonial era tradition dating back over 400 years: when plunging the red hot metal rod into a beer the chemistry takes over by creating a steaming, bubbling effect as the sugars in the alcohol are being caramelized in front of your eyes! FIRE PITS | ALL DAY | WARM UP | Saturday @ Fest Field Our fire pits will be loaded with wood and burning throughout our snowy festival field all day and into the night. Outdoor seating and picnic tables are available. Bring your mitts and blankets! GOAT PETTING | 12:00-3:00 PM | FREE | Saturday @ Fest Field Bring the ‘kids’ and pet a goat! That’s right, Bock beer and goats! Why goats? The beer we now know as bock originated in the Northern German city of Einbeck, as far back as the 1400s. By the 1600s bock beer was being brewed in the Munich area of Southern Germany. The name “Einbeck” was pronounced as “Einbock” in the Bavarian accent of the region – and “einbock” means “billy goat” in German. Fun for the whole family! SAUNA DU NORD| SAUNA SESSIONS ALL DAY Sign up for a session in advance! || THE SPECIALTY BEERS || TBD PLUS - many other flagship beers, specialty and one of a kind beer, seltzers, lagers, ales, IPA's, stouts and many more.
