On Oct. 26, families, students and community members dressed up in costume and gathered at Sudwerk Brewing Co. for a Halloween Extravaganza. The annual event included live music from local musicians on The Dock, pumpkins available to paint, a party brunch inside the restaurant, costume contests and more.

Alex Fisher-Wagner is the events strategist at Sudwerk Brewing and was also the emcee for the extravaganza. Throughout the month of October, Sudwerk offered special Halloween cocktails called the Experiment and Vampire Bite to embrace the spooky season.

“For October, we’ve been running these special Halloween cocktails on theme with decor,” Fisher-Wagner said. “Those two Halloween cocktails were the Experiment, which was an Earl Grey whiskey cocktail that is topped with a gummy eyeball, and then our Vampire Bite which is a shooter that was white rum, blackberry liqueur and lime juice, garnished with a black sugar rim.”

Fisher-Wagner also shared details of the exciting collaboration with RockBand University at this year’s event. 

“Our annual Halloween Extravaganza is a free event that is put on at Sudwerk that’s family-friendly and open to all,” Fisher-Wagner said. “This year was really exciting, because we got to partner with RockBand University for their kid’s Halloween concert showcase which featured seven different rock bands from their after-school program.”

  Among the kids from RockBand University were two who dressed up as band members from Green Day and ended up winning the kid’s costume contest. 

In addition to Halloween parties, Sudwerk brings the community together with celebrations such as Oktoberfest. Sudwerk was founded by German descendants and takes pride in their traditional German brewing methods.

“We just had our Oktoberfest at the end of September,” Fisher-Wagner said. “It is an annual event that brings about four to five-hundred people every year. We’re a German restaurant and brewery, so there’s a big German celebration there.”

Sudwerk Brewing Co. is known for hosting celebrations for every holiday throughout the year, and then some. From Halloween Extravaganzas to Cherry Blossom Festivals to weekly trivia nights and live music concerts, Sudwerk always has something going on for everyone in the community.
