Grovetoberfest is a party, no doubt. With more than 200 beers, music, and a day with friends in Coconut Grove’s Peacock Park, the day always turns out to be one of the most festive, with people dressing in beer hats, dirndls, and superhero costumes.
This year, event director Tony Albelo gave people an extra incentive to dress up for the event — half-price admission and a special entrance to anyone in costume. The result: an early beer-themed Halloween party. Some people even brought snacks — worn as jewelry. Take a look at the best costumes we encountered.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,800 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
What’s better than a boot? A horn!
The pretzel necklace never goes out of style.
Just a couple of Vikings out to plunder a few brewskis.
Alice in Wonderland and Sgt. Pepper meet a normal person.
This couple make lederhosen and a dirndl look good. Not easy.
Homebrew tats!
What do a cowboy, a sexy schoolgirl, a Scotsman, an Indian princess, and a German dude have in common? Beer!
Blow into this BAC meter at your own risk!
Best costume goes to the two men dressed as Michael Pirolo and Giorgio Rapicavoli. Oh, wait, it is Michael Pirolo and Giorgio Rapicavoli!
