BeerGartner and Barbus say hello to all Oktoberfestvisitors. Prosit!

First Beer in Bamberg

 Greetings from Barbus, SchlumberLady, BeerGartner and BeerCap. Prosit!!!!!

Day trip...

 This place is almost to Regensburg.  About a 2 hour train ride from Munchen Hbf.

Last Nun to brew beer

Bier Immersion 2021

No answer has been provided, how many biers were consumed during the trip. Where there any accidents or injuries?

The Journey Has Ended

We have completed the circle of midwestern Hobrauhauses, with a couple extra bier venue visits. While Barley Man is absent from this picture at Hofbrauhaus Newport, he did visit during our brief recuperation in Dayton.

A Missing Oktoberfestian

On our Hofbrauhaus tour the gang is having a good time reminescing (sp?). Has anyone seen the missing Oktoberfestian in the middle?

Früh Kölsch

 Stopover on our way to Italy; Cologne! We were thinking of you.

Less than two weeks away... Questions Remain

 Less than two weeks until the trip of a lifetime..  Oktoberfest Analysts are wondering:

1.  How many beers will be drunken total during the trip?

2.  How many beers will Flyin Dan leave half full?

3.  How many times will Doppleboch say" Good god, that's horrible!"... or something to that effect.

4. Will sheep be present at Flyin Dan's farm?  Will the lambs look like Flyin Dan?  

5. How may different law enforcement jurisdictions will the crew personally encounter?

6. Sausages or Hendl?..  at some point, it won't matter.

7. Will the team stay away from discussing politics for 8 whole days???

8. In what form will Einfahrt appear,  spiritual only?

9.  Will Chugger go over Niagara Falls in a beer keg?  

10.  And the final question:  Who the fuck is Alice?

Tickets purchased, ready to go on the tour!

 It's all over,  but the fun part...  

Updated info for posterity.

Brood X Bier Immersion Tour 2021

In honor of the 2021 immergence of the cicadas in the Midwest (and our inability to execute the original Bier Immersion Tour), the intrepid Oktoberfestians will not be beat down.

The venues we will visit over an 11 day span include:

Hofbräuhaus Pittsburg
Hofbräuhaus Buffalo
Hofbräuhaus Cleveland
Hofbräuhaus Columbus
Riggs Beer Company
Hofbräuhaus St. Louis
Bavarian Bierhaus Nashville
Hofbräuhaus Newport

An optional visit will also include the Las Vegas Hofbräuhaus.

Oktoberfest 2021 Comfort Tour

For your information: Schlumberger Lady, Beer Gartner, Beer Cap and I are going on a trip to Germany from August 27 to September 5.  The trip is to Kassel, Bamberg, Nuremberg and of course Munich.  And yes we will keep you informed of our (beer and hacks) experiences via the blog.  To be continued ....

Oktoberfest 2021 Cancelled

 Oktoberfest 2021 ist kaput!

UPDATE 1-German Oktoberfest canceled again due to COVID (msn.com)

Sorry to see this happen,  but predicted.  There may be hope for a beer tour,  but things have to get a whole lot better in Europe. 

There Might Be Hope Afterall !

While not official yet, it looks like the EU will be allowing travel from the U.S. for vaccinated people. Even if no Oktoberfest, we will need to decide on travel.

Prost!

Happy Easter Fellow Oktoberfestians

In honor of this day I thought I would test your bier knowledge. What does bier have to do with little bunnies and chocolate eggs you may ask. Well, the bunnies have fluffy white tails and our bier has some fluffy white foam. So my question for you is about the foam on our bier.

Why is the foam white?

Please, no Google, Bing, Yahoo or Duck-Duck-Go. Try your best and let's see who can answer this age old question.
