Beer is back on Lagoon’s midway as Utah park offers 20 brews on tap at new Bavarian-style restaurants

Farmington • Lagoon Amusement Park’s newest attraction isn’t a ride that spins, twirls or sends thrill-seekers upside down.

It’s a Bavarian village that serves beer, something that hasn’t been offered on the midway for more than four decades.

Lagoon’s Biergarten Restaurants — with long wooden tables, rock accents and even a smaller version of the famous Hague Fountain in the Netherlands — has opened.

It serves 20 various beers on tap, along with German-inspired food and American classics.

“The response has been really positive,” Lagoon spokesman Adam Leishman said Thursday during a ribbon-cutting event for business leaders and media members.
