See What's on Tap at Bramwell Oktoberfest

Snuggled in the Allegheny Mountains, the historic town of Bramwell hosts the traditional German celebration Oktoberfest. The 14th annual Bramwell Oktoberfest will be held on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 2 to 8 p.m. Juried beer competitions, beer tastings, food stations, live music and an artisan market will keep the town known as the "Home of the Millionaires" hopping. Guided outdoor tours of Bramwell's Millionaire Row Historic District will be available as well.

Microbreweries and home brewers will face off in competition and offer samples. Hear live music to suit many tastes including traditional folk, blues, and bluegrass.

Tickets are $18 in advance and $20 at the gate for anyone 12 and older. You can purchase tickets in advance from the Mercer County Convention and Visitors Bureau as well as finding information on area accommodations.

Bramwell is located near Bluefield on the West Virginia-Virginia border near Interstate 77 South.
