Starting today until it gets too damn cold, ORKTOBERFEST has taken over Warlady Buttercup's Farm in Battlefield Park! And on Saturday, September 29th at 9 ET, the festival will be holding a bonfire to celebrate the beginning of fall!

A working hay market has been converted into a massive, fortress-like hay maze, multiple beer and food tents, and a stage for traditional goblin polka acts like Green Danube and Bree-Yark and the Grovelers. There is a great candy corn-colored ferris wheel that lights up at night situated in the center of the market, visible from across the city walls.

There is a pumpkin patch with a contest overseen by Warlady Buttercup herself — losing jack o' lanterns get smashed by her morningstar — and an apple orchard where people can rent baskets for picking, or buy whole bushels from one of the Warlady's husbands.

And deep in the orchard, late at night, on a stage erected on a massive old tree trunk, bands congregate to play ODM — Orcish Death Metal, also known as "Oh Damn!" Famed ODM vocalist Fistmelda tends a makeshift bar of BadCider barrels, pouring fresh pints every night until the last barrel stands empty...

Orktoberfest is the harvest festival with something for everyone, so come on out to Battlefield Park, raise a pint and a pretzel, and celebrate autumn the orcish way today!

Silver Mark Brewing Co. isn't about to let Red Orc have a festival all to themselves — even Orktoberfest!

The brewery has set up stalls along the city wall at the edge of the festival, as well as a large gray tent as close to the center as they could get, serving beer and festival food to the Orktoberfest masses. Under the tent, empty growlers have been set up for a difficult game of ring toss — land a silver-painted ring around one of the marked bottles to win a free pretzel, a free pint, or a free growler refill!

Aurkish Festbier is a blonde lager, full-flavored and subtly sweet, the perfect drink for shouting toasts and festive bar songs.

Noirmont Biere D'automne is an amber lager and a New World variation on a classic Bavarian style, medium-bodied with a slightly bitter grapefruit flavor.

Blackhart Smoked Ale is a traditional rauchbier that uses ingredients dried over an open flame, giving it a distinctive flavor that calls to mind smokehouses, venison, and the hearty, meat-heavy meals that can be found all around Orktoberfest.
