Did you know that Donnerstag means Thursday? And what a
great Thursday it was to kick off
King of
Prussia Beerfest Royale with the Donnerstag Happy Hour on October 1!
Despite the Nor’easter winging its way up the coast and into KoP, hundreds
attended this sold-out event behind the mall under the big tents to eat and
drink in style.
Many local food vendors were in attendance, Maggiano’s,
Bahama Breeze, Wegman’s, Bonefish Grill, The Capital Grille, Morton’s,
California Pizza Kitchen, and Sullivan’s.
Delicious wine and spirits came from
Manatawny Still Works and Chaddsford Winery. Many local breweries were pouring
all night, including Troegs, Two Roads, Sly Fox, Stable 12, Haymaker, Neshaminy
Creek Brewing, Sir Charles Hard Cider, Crabbie’s, Evil Genius, Free Will, Conshohocken
Brewing Co, Rock Bottom Brewery, Starr Hill, and many more!
Live music from
Swift Technique kept the crowd pumped while
sampling amazing food and craft brews. Despite the weather, everyone had a
great time enjoying their complimentary cigar from John Hay Cigars, specialty cocktails
and pumpkin beers, Dia Doce cupcakes from the cupcake truck, and more!
Then the night continued over all Sullivan’s for the
Official Donnerstag Happy Hour After Party- which was a great time!
This is the fourth
year of this spectacular event, and if you don’t make it this year, come next
year and you’ll see why the King of Prussia Beerfest Royale is named Best
Outdoor & Best Foodie Event 2015 by Montco Happening!
Always drink responsibly!
