It's time for Oktoberfest!  Amanti Vino's 4th Annual  Oktoberbest will benefit  Intensive Therapeutics, an extraordinary occupational therapy group for children with special needs.
"Attendees can beat the crowds  with VIP Tickets, which provide admission at  6.30pm, for early tasting  and a reserved mezzanine area with exclusive high-end wines and gourmet  treats, plus full General Admission access and balcony privileges to  enjoy the band above the fray.
General Admission starts at 7:30 and the price includes all you can  eat, drink (wine and beer) and all the grooves you can dance to, with  music from Jersey City's finest, the super-hot One and Nines. "A band of the highest order," noted one critic, "the  songwriting of guitarist Jeff Marino makes respectful nods to the Stax  sound, early stages of Motown, and blue-eyed brethren like Van Morrison  and Steve Winwood...."
Participants confirmed thus far include:  Weyerbacher, Nash  Distributors, Allied Beverage Group, Hunterdon Brewing Co., Duvel,  Moortgaat, Unibroue, Brooklyn Brewery. NJ Beer Co.,  Lagunitas, Kohler  Distributing Company and Stone Brewing Company.  More to come -- check Amanti Vino's website for updates!"
