Each ticket to this 21+ event includes a limited-edition Evil Genius stein, priced at $20 for early birds and $25 for general admission. Designated Driver tickets are available for $10.

Evil Genius is pulling out all the stops with four German-inspired beers brewed specifically for Oktoberfest revelers:

To complement these brews, a menu of traditional German-inspired eats will be available, including rich Obatzda (a classic Bavarian cheese spread) served with warm Bavarian pretzel rods and "evil" jalapeño cooper sauce. Hearty bratwurst with beer-infused sauerkraut, savory German potato salad, and decadent German chocolate cake will complete the authentic culinary experience.

The festive atmosphere will be amplified by live performances from Polkadelphia, a local polka group guaranteed to get feet tapping, alongside a DJ seamlessly mixing modern tracks with traditional Oktoberfest flair. Guests can also test their strength and endurance in the official United States Stein Holding Association Qualifying Competition. The winner will not only advance to state-level finals but also take home an Evil Genius gift card.

"Oktoberfest is one of our favorite times of year, and we love putting our Evil Genius twist on the tradition," said Ryan Keller. "You’ll get the steins, the beers, the games, the music - but you’ll also get that playful, unexpected edge that makes an Evil Genius event so much fun."

Don your lederhosen and dirndls, and prepare for a day of communal cheer, delicious brews, and unforgettable Bavarian revelry at Fishtown Oktoberfest!
