BRING YOUR FAVORITE STEIN
We only serve draft beer in steins. If you have one, bring it, if you don’t, register so it’s included in your ticket. Pick up on-site on the day of the event that you can keep forever and ever.
TOKENS!
In an effort to keep service as speedy as possible, Fulton Oktoberfest is a token-fueled economy. Tokens are sold at a flat rate inclusive of an event + sales tax.
Steins are required for drinking beer at Oktoberfest. If you brought your own stein from home (this FREE option is highly encouraged by Fulton and Mother Earth) you can do some simple math on how many tokens to purchase.
1 token included in registration.
Additional tokens: $10 (tax inclusive). There is a 4% processing fee on all CC transactions..
BEER COST
- One half-liter stein (0.5L) of beer = 1 token
- One liter stein (1L) of beer = 2 tokens
Forgot your stein at home? You’ll need to purchase one at the event.
STEIN COST
- One half-liter stein (0.5L) = 1 token
