Bavarian Festbier

 


It's approaching that time of the year again, and to celebrate in advance, I picked up a 4-pack of cans of Paulaner Oktoberfest beer and a 6-pack of bottles of Weihenstephaner Fest Bier. They are both very good, though likely a tad better in Bavaria.

Paulaner is a Munich brewery,  and thus, its "Fest" period is the world-famous Oktoberfest in Munich.
Weihenstephaner is the world's oldest brewery and is located near Munich in the town of Freising. That town has several beer-centered events throughout the year (below).


By the way, this may be a bit sacrilegious, but I am in the habit of drinking my German beers at home in a frosted mug. There is nothing wrong with really cold German beer. It also helps build up that big creamy head that is a must with German beer.
