Next Meeting Sept. 14 You don't have to travel to Munich to enjoy great Oktoberfest brew - just come to the next club meeting at the Gaslight, 3 PM, on Sunday, September 14. While the real Oktoberfest lasts for 16 days our will run for only one, so don't miss it! Oktoberfestbiers have been served at the event in Munich since 1818 and are supplied by 6 breweries- Spaten, Löwenbräu, Augustiner, Hofbräu, Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr. Traditionally they were all lagers called Märzen - brewed in March and allowed to ferment slowly during the summer months. Originally these would have been dark lagers, but from 1872 a strong March brewed version of an amber-red Vienna lager made by became the favorite Oktoberfestbier. Since the 1970s the type of beer served at the festival has been a pale lager about 6% abv The original "Oktoberfest" occurred in Munich, on October 12, 1810 for the commemoration of a marriage between Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen. This year's' Oktoberfest takes place from September 20 until October 5 so you have time to make the meeting and still go to the main event!
