About the event

WhenApril 2027 (to confirm; 2026 ran April 4)
WhereReading Liederkranz, Pennside (Lower Alsace Township)

Bockbier Fest returns to the Reading Liederkranz in Pennside, where the German Singing and Sport Society marks the arrival of spring the traditional way. Bock is the strong, malty lager German brewers have long tied to the turn of the season, and the club builds an afternoon and evening around it with food, music, and the easy hospitality that regulars know well.

The Liederkranz exists to share German cultural heritage with Berks County, and events like this one are where that mission is most visible. Expect a mix of longtime members and first-time visitors filling the clubhouse, plates of traditional German fare, and plenty of room to settle in with friends.

This listing covers the April 2027 edition, with the exact date still to be confirmed by the club. Watch the Liederkranz calendar of events for the announcement, and note that the clubhouse also hosts regular Saturday hours, trivia, and musical evenings throughout the year.
