O'zapft is! Counting Down to Oktoberfest 2026

Ask anyone at Bütterken and they'll tell you: German tradition doesn't just visit our bakery once a year. It lives in every loaf we pull from the oven. Our slow-fermented sourdoughs, our deep, malty rye breads, our pretzels shaped by hand each morning, all of it is part of a promise we made when we opened our doors: to share real German bread culture with the Mornington Peninsula. And while that promise keeps us busy all year round, there's one season when our ovens truly go into overdrive. Oktoberfest is on its way.
