Didn't we just do this exact thread less than a week ago? That was a week ago, now it's this week. I don't think its been a week. It was like 4-5 days ago. I can't search for it. There was two, dated 22 and 24, so it has been a week, but that doesn't matter, yesterday started a new week so it was OK to post today. That's what I find searching for "oktoberfest", Just wait someone will be posting about Jennifer Lawrence nude pics Wednesday or Thursday. |

I'm sure the beer snobs will be along shortly to explain the error of my ways. I drink maybe two six packs a year. Last night a friend said "I know you don't drink much but taste this". I drank three last night and they all tasted great. Seems to me to have less carbonation too but I don't drink enough to be able to tell. Just bought my first six pack in years. I drink a ton of different beers, and plenty off them. Yes, I have had better beers, but SA Oktoberfest is still one of my favorites. I really wish they would make it a year round beer. Last year, I couldn't get it after October 1st. WTF is that shit? |

It's good, but you need to try more beer. I like it and it's one of my favorite Sam Adams, but I wouldn't consider it the best I've ever tasted. Get out and explore man, it's a beer lovers paradise out there.

Amen Brother. It's one of the only beer the wife will drink. We buy several extra cases when they first come out and put them away. As great as it is, it always seems to disappear around winter-time just when you are craving one.

You need to drink more Paulaner Oktoberfest FTW followed by Spaten Oktoberfest. Zee Germans still make the best commercial Oktoberfest. |

Cannot believe the amount of beer snobs here. All your fancy beers must go down nice in your lovely suburban homes.
What happened to hard working guys drinking domestic favorites? Busch Light, Coors Lt, and once in awhile if I'm feeling like spending more I'll spring for some Blue Moon. |

Busch Light, Coors Lt, and once in awhile if I'm feeling like spending more I'll spring for some Blue Moon. I can brew a clone of Paulaner Oktoberfest for about $0.50 for a 16 oz beer. What's the cost of Busch lite, Coors and. Blue moon going for a case? Just because you appreciate good beer doesn't mean you spend a ton of money. Hell, that's why I started brewing; I liked Belgians, Germans and other European stuff that cost more. Now grated, there are people to buy the more expensive beers from a trendy point of view but they're in the minority. There's a reason Coors, Bud, etc are so cheap as they're filled willed adjuncts and additives. Take a quality beer from a microbrewery that uses only quality grains, hops and natural spices and whatnot; shit is more expensive to brew. Life's too short to drink shitty beer but if that's what you like, who gives a shit....I don't. Drink what you like but don't look down on people that do. Same goes for 'beer snobs.' |
