To celebrate its one-year-anniversary, Caboose Commons is hosting an Oktoberfest in Merrifield on Saturday (Sept. 21).
Two families founded Caboose Brewing in 2013 — operating Caboose Tavern in Vienna — and opened Caboose Commons in Merrifield last fall.
The beer garden and coffee house regularly hosts events like dog-friendly happy hours and fitness classes.
The free event will feature the new Oktoberfest Marzen brew, Lone Oak Coffee, German food and live music by Cory Campbell and Jon Cresswell. People will be able to purchase food and drink tickets.
Attendees can also enjoy games like cornhole, life-size chess and life-size beer pong.
The event will run from noon-7 p.m. at 2918 Eskridge Road.
