Prost! Celebrate Oktoberfest at Brotzeit Lokal’s Brooklyn Basin Beer Garden
At Brooklyn Basin, the Oakland shoreline feels like an extension of your own backyard—and for Caspian residents, that backyard includes one of the East Bay’s most beloved waterfront gems: Brotzeit Lokal.
This Bavarian-inspired biergarten pairs authentic German fare with unbeatable estuary views, creating a gathering spot that’s equal parts vibrant and laid-back. Whether you arrive by foot, bike, or even kayak, you’re welcomed with the kind of atmosphere that makes “just one beer” turn into a full afternoon of good food, good company, and sunny patio lounging.
From classic schnitzel to bratwurst plates, Brotzeit Lokal’s menu celebrates the flavors of Bavaria. Favorites include Weisswurst with sweet mustard, house-made pretzels with obatzda, and seasonal specials that pair perfectly with a crisp German beer. On warm afternoons, order a Weiss beer served from a glass boot, grab a table in the biergarten, and toast to Oakland’s waterfront lifestyle.
Part of what makes Brotzeit Lokal unique is its true shoreline connection. Guests are encouraged to row up or sail up directly to the dock from the Oakland Estuary, then step right into the beer garden. The space is dog-friendly, bike-friendly, and infused with that unmistakable blend of California sun and European charm.
Mark your calendars for September 21 when Brotzeit Lokal hosts its annual Oktoberfest in the Brooklyn Basin Beer Garden. From 1–4pm, enjoy live music by Polkageist West, a lively German polka band that knows how to turn an afternoon into a celebration. Expect cold beer, laughter, and plenty of lederhosen and dirndls in the crowd.
For future Caspian homeowners, Brotzeit Lokal is just one of many ways to enjoy the waterfront without ever needing a car. Imagine finishing a Saturday paddle in the estuary, tying up your kayak at the dock, and rewarding yourself with a pint and a plate of currywurst, then walking home along the shoreline in minutes.
Schedule a personal tour of Caspian’s new model homes in advance by calling 510.813.3659, then make an afternoon of it. Experience the residences, wander the neighborhood, and top it off with a Weiss beer in the sun. It’s the perfect way to get a taste of life at Brooklyn Basin.
