Oktoberfest is once again being celebrated at Red Robin and with it returns the
Oktoberfest Burger. Featuring Black Forest ham, Swiss cheese, tangy beer mustard, sauteed onions, and lettuce on a toasted pretzel bun, the burger anchors a limited-time Oktoberfest menu that also includes a pumpkin pie (the ubiquitous flavor of the fall, of course) shake.
The
new Spiced Pumpkin Pie Shake is made with Libby's pumpkin pie filling, vanilla soft serve, nutmeg, and graham cracker crumbs.
The more Oktoberfest-themed items on the menu include:
- The
returning O'Fest Beer Shake - a 21-and-over milkshake made with vanilla soft serve, caramel, and Sam Adams OctoberFest beer.
-
New Brew-Battered Brats - five beer-battered and deep-fried jalapeno-cheddar bratwurst sausages served on a bed of Yukon kettle chips.
-
New Captain's Berry Angry Cocktail - apple is another popular fall flavor and this cocktail features a mix of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, Angry Orchard Crisp Apple Cider, with a bit of raspberry and a dash of nutmeg.
-
New German Chocolate Brownie Bite-Tini - chocolate brownie bites and whipped cream topped with toasted, shredded coconut.
The seasonal menu is available for a limited time through November 10, 2013.
I saw the beer-shake on Red Robins menu last night and was immediately curious. I was so pleased after my first taste that I began complaining to my wife that the glass it came in was too small. It was awesome!!! Seriously, the vanilla ice cream, caramel, and Sam Adams work well together. I hope it stays on the menu for the rest of the year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review I've been hesitant to try it but it sounds delicious.
