Oktoberfest Beers

[SoonerStud615]

I feel like there was a thread about this a little bit ago, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

But, since it's not October, what are some of your favorite Octoberfest beers?

This is a classic, though probably not the best.

It isn't October?

Or did you mean Oktoberfest isn't in October?

I'm confoozed.

I think he meant "now".

Sam Adams is very good. One of my favorites at an actual Oktoberfest event is Warsteiner Oktoberfest.

Oktoberfest and Bock are about the only lagers I still buy and drink on occasion. Seldom have I found a brew of either style to be anything but good (No, Shiner Bock does not count as a Bock).

The Munich Oktoberfest beers are all very good. I've had gallons of Spaten and Paulaner over the years on tap at the Addison Oktoberfest. Flying Dog out of Colorado has a great Oktoberfest but I don't see it much. Sam Adams won me over last year with their version. I had to have S.A. a few times before it grew on me last year.

Well, that makes more sense.


I don't know what makes an Oktoberfest style beir, but I seem to like all of them.

I'm pretty excited about Oktoberfest this year. I'm going to try and sample everything on the menu sans domestics.

This a brazillion times. My personal selection (right now) is the Hofbrau Original.

Ein prosit!

Whoops. Indeed I did. Pitfall of having a SoonerFans iPhone app. ;) damn autocorrect.

My favorites are Ayinger and Wiehenstephaner, then Paulaner, Spaten, and Sam Adams.

Well, I mean, other than the one I make. :)
