So what if he's wearing a British shirt and drinking unapproved Erdinger Beer |
Oktoberfest--Ein Prosit!
Yes, The end of September marks the actual celebratory beginning of Munich's traditional Oktoberfest. This year it began on the twenty-first of September and will continue through October sixth. Whether you start early or late, it remains the world's grandest beer festival. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OktoberfestNo one should miss out on enjoying some of the best beers brewed locally, nationally, or internationally.
Munich was founded by Monks who made it a point to alternate their fasts with a strong brew that provided calories for sustenance. In German, Munich means Monks. Thanks to them, the country produces some of the finest beers in the world.
The favorite fare for beer guzzling folks in Munich is covered by the refrain, "Radi, Wurst, and Beer." So here's the Wurst, four big ones. Weisswurst, Bratwurst, Knackwurst and a Danish sausage served up at a cozy restaurant in Solvang, California. No Radi(shes) were served, but red cabbage and potatoes were on the plate. Couldn't ask for a tastier accompaniment to the Erdinger Weissbrau.
Only wish everyone could come to the Munich Hofbrauhaus for the camaradarie: "Oans, Zwoa, G'suffa!!!
