Re: SA Oktoberfest
 

I hope soon, SA Oktoberfest is the only SA beer that I like!!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I had my first one of the season yesterday! :D

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

5 gal kegs will be available at Beverages & More here in CA on 09/10.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

:r Peter, when I first saw this post, "CA", I thought we were selling it in the Asylum!:D:tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

We've been serving it at the Brewery in Boston for a few weeks now. I've also been seeing it in local bars/pubs/liquor stores in Boston. I was in Florida this weekend and saw it on draft at a restaurant. I guess it takes longer to make it's way out to the left coast.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I dig it too bro.

If you like the SA Oktoberfest, you should try the Spatten Oktoberfest! I've come to look for that more than any other when this time of the year rolls around.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I've already seen it in stores in MA, NH, and NY. I use it for my Bratwurst and Caramelized Onions and Beer butter sauce. Wicked good stuff!!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

You're definitely right on the Spatten Oktoberfest. Very good stuff!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

damn I am located in NY. I had my ma check for it today when she got groceries but she said they didnt have any. I will have to check around and see if I can locate it. I need to stock up this year.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

They had it at our Sam's Club (in IN) yesterday. Agreed, one of my favorites as well.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Somebody brought it to a birthday cookout for me yesterday, so it's in the store for sure in the upstate ny area

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

My Dad picked up a case at Sams club here in Florida two weeks ago. Great stuff :tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Had it on tap in NC two weeks ago... have seen the bottle for about a week. It is a good brew for sure.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I'll have to get some. They had a bunch at my local liquor store but bought some Fat Tire instead.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Bought some on a recent trip last month in VA, so it's definitely making its way

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Been on tap at Bar Louie in Branson, MO for a few weeks now.

Also, if you like SA Oktoberfest, you should try Schlafly Pumpkin Ale. From a local brewery in St. Louis, available in Missouri and Southern Illinois. 8% ABV

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

This man speaks the truth! Other great Oktoberfest beers are Ayinger Oktoberfest-Marzen, Hacker Pschorr Oktoberfest-Marzen, and Paulaner Oktoberfest-Marzen.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

8%? :dr:tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Schlafly and Ofallon make the two best Pumpkin beers!!!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

It's in the stores and bars here already.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

In MI this has been on the shelves for at least 2 weeks. Haven't had my first Oktoberfest of the season yet but I probably will on Tuesday :tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Do you want me to order you a case or three this week, 'freak? You can swing by and pick it up when you come down in a few weeks to watch the Yankees clinch. :D

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I definately agree!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

went to three stores today, the first two were out and I got the last case at the third store, I am so happy right now!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

:dance:

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Already had it on Draft and from the Bottle here in PA!!! :tu

Look forward to the Oktoberfest and Pumpkin Ale's all year.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

wll have to look for it here.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

It's in San Jose, CA. I picked up a 12 pack for $12.99 at Safeway today!!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Its here in Maryland, I had some DogFish Head Punkin ale last night holy god it was GOOD.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

:dr SA Oktoberfest Can't wait :dr I still have three six packs of my Cherry Wheat to get through :r

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

This thread made me grab one from the fridge.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Damn, my 12 pack came to 17 after tax

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

It's here on the west side of the mitten. My wifey picked up a 6 for the weekend. Had 1 and it was mighty good :tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

SA Oktoberfest is good. Had it on draft last Friday at a local eatery. I've heard the brew is slightly different every year. Anyone know if there's any truth to that?

:hm Will have to try them. I think Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale is friggin great, better than Dogfish IMO. Have you ever had the Weyerbacher and how would you compare it?

Re: SA Oktoberfest
 

Ditto! Can't stand the regular stuff!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Picked up a case of 24 here at Sam's Club this afternoon for $25.96!:banger

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

And Hof Brau Oktoberfest also !

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

SA oktoberfest in the fridge now.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

picked up a case for about $21 at Costco in Phoenix (. N Glendale)

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

It's all about the Paulaner Oktoberfest...but in a pinch (like Thursday night for the ball game and I couldn't find Paulaner), SA Oktoberfest does just fine...it was really good actually.

As far as pumpkin beers there is Southern Tier Pumking....and everything else.:banger

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I picked up a six pack at Safeway today for $7.99... F*** Yeah!!!:tu

I had one as soon as I got home from the store!!! Very nice!!!:dr

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Spaten Oktoberfest and SA Oktoberfest still available at Costco (N. Glendale, AZ). Price for a case is $21.99. The also had Stone IPA for 27.99 per case.

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I just picked up the Sam Harvest Collection Variety 12 Pack.
I liked the Dunkelweizen very much :tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Does that have any octoberfest brew in it?

Scott

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

2 Boston Lager
2 October Fest
2 Cherry Wheat :tu
2 Irish Red
2 Brown Ale
2 Dunkelweizen

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

I got a keg of this on Friday and we've really been enjoying it. It wasn't my first choice, but it was definitely the best option of the kegs available. Easy-drinking, tastes good, and goes well with cigars. I'll probably be hitting the tap again as soon as football starts today :)

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Or "Before"?:r:tu

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Got together with some good friends this past weekend up at Bethany Beach, DE. We had a "Taste Off" between the SA Oktoberfest and Harpoon's version. Harpoon won by a landslide--it had a better hop/malt balance which my buddies preferred. If you have some in your area, pick it up. :tu

We also ventured up the road to the Dogfish Head brewery for a tour & sampling. My first venture this year with their Punkin Ale draft (very good, seemed like a cross between SA's Winter Lager & an Oktoberfest.)

Soon as I upload some photos, might have to start a new thread about my adventures there!

Re: Sam Adams Oktoberfest
 

Not a big fan of Samuel Adams. Just had my first Oktoberfest night....damn tasty!! :tu
