SPRECHEN SIE FUN? Central Texas was settled by a large community of German immigrants. They love to celebrate their sausage, their polka, and the beer too (Spaten is one of our favorites)

Meats: sausages on a stick and smoked turkey leg... a lot of meat. Maybe too much meat... and we STILL didn't get the bratwursts we all wanted.

the big beer and food hall with live music stage. There were three stages and beer halls this year, this being the largest, not the rowdy polka bands.
