Tropical mashup for Douglas

HEMINGWAY’S Brewery in Port Douglas is spicing things up for Germany’s annual Oktoberfest celebrations with a German-tropical event fusion, Troptoberfest, noon to late on Saturday.

Already a big hit in Cairns, the Brewery’s head of hospitality Roman Haslinger said Troptoberfest will add a tropical perspective to the German traditions for a complete beer-fest experience.

“We guarantee the full Oktoberfest package for our festival-goers - German-style beers and cuisine, live music with entertainment from local production company Chopperdog and Rob Longstaff. There are prizes to be won in our annual, much-anticipated keg lifting and best-dressed competitions,” Ms Haslinger said.

“Fusing German traditions and flavours with tropical weather and lifestyle is a heavenly merger. 

“Like the Cairns’ brewery’s equivalent, Hemingway’s Port Douglas will transform into a tropical Bavarian paradise. 

“Imagine vibrant Oktoberfest arrangements and true beer hall seating, with tunes to sing and swing along will set the ambience.” 

An authentic and traditional German menu featuring Oktoberfest classics such as crackling pork belly, Bratwurst and Kransky sausages, and schnitzel variations are just a few of the culinary delights to be enjoyed on the day and the beer-match made in heaven, a freshly baked pretzel with butter, which sold out in Cairns.

The event is  family-friendly, and  festivalgoers are encouraged to dress up.
