Oktoberfest

Posted September 23, 2005 at 12:37 PM by Stickie in Events (3 comments)

My German blood warms at the thought of Weisswurst, Oompah bands and an overflowing stein. Everyone is German during Oktoberfest, so come out and help drain the tanks!

Fair Oaks’toberfest is this Saturday from 1-5pm at Fair Oaks Park. More than 25 breweries will bring their Autumnal favorites for local charities, with celebrity tap handlers. Well, me.

I will also be attending Capitol Public Radio’s Oktoberfest at Pavilions Shopping Plaza on Sunday, October 2 from Noon-3pm. The Carntoa Schuhplattler will lead drunken revelers in German folk dancing.

Sacramento’s Turn Verein Soccer Club will hold their 36th annual Oktoberfest on October 7 & 8.

Prost!

Hi Stickie. Hey, if you make it to these various events will you please do a brief review? Even if just a postscript to this entry? I would love to hear what you thought of the beers, the food, the events and what to look forward to next time around. And also if you would in fact be interested in being a celebrity pourer at the next Fair Oaks’toberfest. And…thanks for the heads up in advance of the O’fests. Thanks, Olaf.
