Timothy O'Toole's Pub will host the Hofbrau Stein Hoist Regional Finals on Thursday, August 4, from 6-8 p.m. The top competitor from each division (men's/women's) will advance to the U.S. Championship in New York City, and ride on the Hofbrau float in the Steuben Parade this fall. The winner of the U.S. Championship will receive a trip to Munich.
The Bavarian sport of “Masskrugstemmen” translates loosely to the lifting of a liter mug of beer. The “Masskrug” is a 1-liter stein that is to be held with one arm, completely stretched out and parallel to the floor. The goal is simple: hold the stein up as long as possible. It’s a balance between the right technique and strength as the full 1-liter “Mass” weighs about 5 lbs.
