Red Robin has announced the release of a new burger in honor of the world's largest beer festival. Oktoberfest is an annual German festival that celebrates traditional Bavarian culture. To commemorate the festival, Red Robin has designed its own Bavarian-style burger.
The new dish is called the 'UberBurger' and it is part of Red Robin's premium burger line. The burger consists of a half-pound Black Angus patty, which is topped with candied bacon and a grilled bratwurst. The burger also contains several beer-infused toppings including Samuel Adams-glazed onions, Merkts beer cheese and a tangy beer mustard. The whole dish is served on a toasted pretzel bun for an extra Bavarian touch.
In addition to the gourmet burger, Red Robin is also introducing a Cheesy Beer Brat and Bavarian Poutine Fries. The dishes are the perfect way to celebrate the start of the world's largest beer festival.
