It's Oktoberfest Time!! YEAH!! I love Oktoberfest and the Beer. Thank you member Steve Wilder for the Idea!

I have set up a Private, German Beer Tasting In the ClubHouse at the Oktoberfest in El Cajon just for the SD Beer Club. We set up a cost of $10 for 5- 4-5 oz tastings. I will be collecting the $10 cost for the tasting (CASH) just inside the Clubhouse on premises.

These will be Various Beers Directly from German Breweries.We will most likley be trying a Dunkel, a Hefe Weisse, a Lager and/or a Pilsner, and an Oktoberfest Beer. Breweries to be highlighted- Beck(Northern Germany); Hacker-Pschorr (Southern Germany); Spaten (Southern Germany), andWarsteiner (North-Central Germany). They will have Beer Reps on site to talk about the Beers, Breweries and beer styles.

Additional Cost to get into Oktoberfest $5, paid prior to coming in gate ($2 off coupons available in the Reader and East County Pennysaver) But This Oktoberfest will have 9 German Beers on draft and an Authentic German Band direct from Germany "The Guggenbach-Buam Band" and Great German Food, incl Ox cooked on a spit, etc, games, Craft Booths, etc.

Oktoberfest that Friday night opens at 4pm, Plan to arrive by 6pm, if not before, as I plan to start the tasting between 6:15-6:30pm. You will want to find me inside the clubhouse to get paid up and info for the Tasting, Thanks.

I could use a couple volunteers to help pour beers during the tasting, so Please email me if you can help out.

This should be a GREAT Time and looking forward to hanging out with beer clubbers after the Tasting to enjoy the Festival!! Hope to see you Friday Oct 9th in El Cajon. Oktoberfest website:
