In just a few short months, it’ll be spring again, and Cincinnati can’t celebrate the season without Bockfest, an annual debaucherous celebration of dark beer, springtime and goats. And one of the most crucial parts of the festival is the kickoff: the Bockfest Parade.

To help support this unique tradition, Arnold’s Bar and Grill will host the Bockfest Beefsteak, a special ticketed dinner, on Thursday, Feb. 8. The dinner will feature four courses from Arnold’s new chef, Randi Roberts, and former Arnold’s chef Kayla Robison. Guests will also get a preview of some bock beers from Christian Moerlein, Braxton, 50 West and Wandering Monsters, which will be paired with each course.

The menu will feature sausage and short rib donated by Avril-Bleh Meats & Deli, and Bockfest’s title sponsor, Servatii, has donated pretzels and will also be contributing dessert.

At the dinner, guests can enjoy live music from Kryst Kruer, and Jim Effler will unveil the official artwork for Bockfest this year. All attendees will also receive a limited, signed Giclee print of the work.

Tickets are $100 and can be purchased here. A hundred percent of the proceeds will go toward the Bockfest Parade.

Bockfest returns for its 32nd year March 1-3 and will take place in and around Over-the-Rhine’s historic brewery district. Learn more here.
