Celebrate Oktoberfest…in September!

The Northman Beer and Cider Garden on Chicago’s beautiful Riverwalk will be bringing you three consecutive weekends of Oktoberfest fun, music and revelry.

The Northman features one of the largest and most unique selections of ciders and ales in the Chicago area–and good food, too, with a strong European twist.
