Beers Of The Beano - Saturday 02 November 2024
The last of Oktoberfest at Home 2024 and I now know that Oktoberfest is a trade mark of the municipality of Munich. Two in the box and two single bottles from Aldi. Yes, I know it’s now November but Fines Ales must go on. A touch of Hopcraft too.
Starting with a genuine Oktoberfest Festbier in a Bragdy Twt Lol oversized glass.

3.3/5. Not Fest but a rather pleasant Helles from Aldi, contract brewed by Licher Privatbrauerei. Value drinking at it's best.
