Beer lovers unite! The World Expo of Beer in Frankenmuth features over 300 beers from 50 breweries on 5 continents.
Founded in 1845 by German missionaries, the city of Frankenmuth (aka: Michigan’s “Little Bavaria”) is replete with Bavarian German influence.
The annual Oktoberfest in Frankenmuth is the only Oktoberfest in the entire world officially sanctioned by Munich, for God’s sakes!
