On Saturday, October 22, a new era of Sonoma County Oktoberfest celebration begins with Fünkendänk – a one-of-a-kind, truly Sonoma County event at the Sonoma Clean Powered SOMO Village. Local partners Dean Biersch (of HopMonk Tavern fame), Joseph and Jen Tucker of internationally acclaimed RateBeer, Second Octave and locally owned pressdemocrat.com, have joined together to create this unique event that will be focusing on the rising popularity of sour and hoppy beers within an immersive Oktoberfest ambiance and the sweet sounds of funky tunes. The best local and national brewers will provide a fall lineup of award winning beers and specially selected drafts as the crowd gets down to the sounds of Galactic, The Pimps of Joytime, Big Sam’s Funky Nation and the Dixie Giants.
