This is most loveable Quote for any beer lover. And He or She Would be so Excited If they are having a Beer Festival. Here is a Good news for them. October is a month for beer festival. Go Grab your Drinks.                           

Oktoberfest at Home-country

Oktoberfest is the world's largest Volksfest (beer festival and travelling funfair). Held in Munich, Bavaria, Germany annually, it is a 16 – 18-day folk festival running from mid or late September to the first weekend of October, every year 6 million people around the world attend this event. Locally, it is often called the Wiesn, after the colloquial name for the fairgrounds .The Oktoberfest is an important part of Bavarian culture, having been held since 1810. Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations that are modelled after the original Munich event.

During this event, large quantities of  Beer are consumed: during the sixteen day festival in 2013, for example, 7.7 million litres were served. Attenders  also enjoy numerous attractions, such as amusement rides, sidestalls and games. There is also a wide variety of traditional foods including  roast chicken,roast pork,grilled ham hock,grilled fish on a stick, sausages along with cheese noodles, potato pancakes, red cabbage along with such Bavarian delicacies as Obatzda (a spicy cheese-butter spread) and Weißwurst (a white sausage).

The Munich Oktoberfest originally took place in the sixteen-day period up to the first Sunday in October. As such, if the first Sunday in October falls on the 1st or the 2nd, then the festival would run until October 3 (German Unity Day). Thus, the festival now runs for 17 days when the first Sunday is October 2 and 18 days when it is October 1. In 2010, the festival lasted until the first Monday in October (October 4), to mark the event's bicentennial.

Tickets are available at official Websites for Beer Festival

Oktoberfest in USA

German-Americans are the largest self-reported ancestral group in the United States. Correspondingly, there are hundreds of large and small Oktoberfest celebrations held annually throughout the country, the largest being Oktoberfest Zinzinnati in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Known for its large German immigrant population, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and its historic Pennsylvania Dutch population are well known to have many Oktoberfest celebrations during the months of September and October. These celebrations became more popular among the general Commonwealth population in the later half of the twenty century with the rise of microbreweries, and with the opening of authentic German brew houses such as Hofbrauhaus in Pittsburgh, PA.


Peoples of both countries are excited to celebrate this festival. This Festival is most favorite for Beer Lover and there is no less number of beer lover in world.
