I love dunkelweizen, although that's not really an Oktoberfest beer specifically.



Gatorade?

Sam Adams Octoberfest. It is seasonal so ya have to buy it up while it lasts.

Good stuff, though I prefer the Optimator.

Ayinger probably makes the best "octoberfest" style beer I've tried. That being said, their Celebrator is devine.

I'm on a quest to purchase and drink every oktoberfest beer in my market.

So far I've had Warsteiner, Spaten (year round availability unlike most), Brooklyn, Magic Hat, & Sam Adams.

I've had Flying Dog's Dogtoberfest (good) and Summits Okto, also very good.  Just not from this years batch.  I need to get those.  I have to find Erdinger's and I *think* Ayinger has one as well.  

So far my favorite is Brooklyn Brewery's variation but I do think Sam Adams is a good one.

Summit and Flying Dog is very high on the "gotta have it list".


fwiw New Belgium has a Hoptoberfest that is out, and as the name states its hoppy, nothing close to an oktoberfest beer (bier) like you would think.  Decent enough though.


(If anyone has something odd in their market I can't get in DFW let me know and I'll swap what I can get that you can't)

Worse. Water

If you haven't been to BJ's lately (in Arlington on I-20), they have an Oktoberfest beer on tap.  I wasn't impressed, but it's one more for your list.

leinenkugels oktoberfest and sam adams octoberfest

Not a fan of either, but to each his own.

Penn Brewery does a good Oktoberfest as does Spaten.
