We’re bringing the Alps to Buffalo Creek Brewing with a lineup of cozy, crave-worthy drinks including Alpine Ol’ Spritz, Hot Buttered Beer, Boozy Hot Chocolate made with our infamous Russian Imperial Stout, Hallows, and our brand-new Weizenbock. This strong, malty German wheat beer blends the fruity, spicy character of a Weissbier with the rich body and higher ABV of a Bock. Expect notes of banana, clove, dark fruit (plum and raisin), and toasted bread, all balanced by low bitterness and lively carbonation.New this year: themed nights!
🟥 Friday, January 30 – Buffalo Plaid Night
Throw on your best buffalo plaid and help transform the brewery into a cozy North Woods lodge.
⛷️ Saturday, January 31 – Alpine Chic Night

🍽️ The Curious Crow will be serving up alpine favorites like Rösti, Truffle Mac & Cheese, Poutine, German sausages, and meat & cheese boards.
🎶Live music and entertainment comes from the always-crowd-pleasing Alpine Thunder Band, delivering classic alpine hits with the unforgettable sound of Alpen horns and bells all night long.
Alpine Fest is proudly held in conjunction with the Lake Zurich Lions Club, who will be hosting Stein Holding and Hammerschlagen competitions, running a 50/50 raffle, and serving up a classic s’mores bar in the Rustic Room.
