Celebrate spring at AleSchmidt Maifest 2026, a German-inspired festival featuring beer, food, music, and local makers. What is Maifest? Maifest is a traditional German spring festival that marks the arrival of warmer weather, beer garden season, and community gathering. Often considered the spring counterpart to Oktoberfest, it brings together food, music, and beer in celebration of the season. For the event, we will be tapping a special Maibock (6.5% ABV).

It offers a rich malt profile with a clean finish and is traditionally brewed to welcome spring.
