PABST-ING
Shoes and PBRs at the Tannery
You're spent from all your Fashion Week parties, we know. But tonight the Tannery has gratis PBRs on hand to
comfort you while debuting a hip new line of dress shoes from Florsheim (we're intrigued by the high-top wingtip).
- 411:
- No cost, 6-8pm, Oct 1, The Tannery, 11 Brattle St #A, Cambridge, 617-491-0810
ONE
Asana's Birthday Dinner
Asana rolls out a monthlong tasting menu for you tonight in celebration of successfully turning one. A glass
of wine or champagne comes courtesy of the house (all month), which we're pretty sure is the only time a
one-year-old will offer you a drink, let alone pheasant and Kobe beef, outside of maybe Family Guy.
GUTEN TAG
Keg Bowling at Harpoon
Everyone knows about the German oompa bands, bratwursts and beers turning Harpoon Brewery into one of New
England's largest Oktoberfest parties tomorrow. But the crown jewel of the event—and the one thing you
absolutely do not want to miss—is the keg bowling. Think of it as The Big Lebowski, but with
beer, empty kegs and outdoor lanes.
- 411:
- $20, 5:30-11pm, Oct 2, Harpoon Brewery, 306 Northern Ave, 888-427-7666 ext. 3
SAVE ROOM
Dessert Free-for-All at Four Seasons
With all the German beer festivals permeating the city, Austria is chiming in with an insane Viennese
dessert buffet on Friday at the Four Seasons' Bristol Lounge. With 30 different kinds of cakes, crepes and
cookies, all that's missing is some Swiss chocolate and you can basically eat your way through Central
Europe this weekend.

- $24 all you can eat, 9pm-12am, Oct 2, BL, 774 Boylston St, 617-351-2037
PIG OUT
Two Roasted Pigs and Limitless Beer
Just because the weather has turned crisp shouldn't get you out of the pig-roasting spirit. Head to
Worcester on Sunday to feast on two succulent 140-pound porkers, and imbibe to your heart's content on Lost
Sailor IPA cask ale from the Berkshires. You may need a nap afterward.
