October Means New Flavors at Shake Shack (and Shacktoberfest!)
In case you haven’t checked your calendar, today’s October 1st and there’s a new line up of custard flavors at the Shake Shack (on 8th Ave. and 44th) including Pumpkin Pie, S’mores, Orange Fennel, Coconut Caramel, Concord Grape, Apple Cinnamon Raisin, and Shackenstein (it’s almost worth it to come into midtown on a Sunday just to find out what Shackenstein, is…almost). And I just noticed via Shack Shack’s official Facebook Page that Shacktoberfest is back at every Shack location from 10/1 until 10/10.
With the promise of “sausages & bratwursts, concretes and an expanded beer menu with each Shack featuring different brews,” if it’s as good as in past years, it’s definitely worth checking out.
UPDATE! And here’s the menu:
German-Style Biers
Harpoon, Oktoberfest, 16 oz. Draft $6.00
Goose Island, Harvest Ale, 12 oz. Bottle $6.00
