You conquered the bridge. Now conquer the stein.
As part of our legendary Bridge Run After Party, Bay Street Biergarten is bringing a taste of Wies’n to Charleston with a special Halfway to Oktoberfest Stein Hoisting Competition.
Consider this your official preview of our 13th Annual Oktoberfest celebration happening this fall — because we don’t wait until September to raise a liter.
What’s Included:
- Entry into the Stein Hoisting Competition
- One full liter of bier
- A guaranteed slot in one of our two competition heats
- The ultimate bragging rights
We will be running one Men’s Heat and one Women’s Heat, with a maximum of 20 competitors per heat. Once spots are gone, they are gone.
Competition will begin between 2:00–3:00 PM on March 28 during our Bridge Run After Party festivities.
Expect high energy, a loud crowd, and serious strength. Arms locked. Stein straight. No bending. Last one holding wins.
Prizes will be awarded to the top competitors in each division and a FREE entry to our final Okotberfest celebration stein hoisting competition!
