Lucky Bucket Oktoberfest

In my opinion, the best festival that Lucky Bucket puts on every year is Oktoberfest!  I look forward to this event because I know the Big Pimpkin will be arriving. This year it is on September 8th from 7:00 - 11:00 pm. Tickets can be purchased in advance through Groupon

Scratchtoberfest 

Ord, Nebraska on a fall Nebraska day will be gorgeous! I am sure Mike will have brewed some great ones in addition to the Scratchtoberfest Marzen.  The great brews of Scratchtown will be flowing and the Huskers will be on.  This one should be at the top of your list to attend!  Can't make this one, then checkout Caleb's home town fest - Nehawktoberbest.

  • 10/14: Nehawktoberfest - Nehawka Bar
