Fall is my favorite season of the year, followed very closely by Winter. So I was very excited when an e-mail arrived today informing me:
When Sly Fox Oktoberfest Lager hits retail shelves in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York later this month, it will mark the first time this popular seasonal style has ever been released in cans by a craft brewery.
I learned that the original "Oktoberfest" occurred in Munich on October 18, 1810 when Prince Ludwig of Bavaria invited the general public to join in to celebrate his marriage. Today Oktoberfest is a 16-day festival still held in Munich, running from late September to early October. It is one of the most famous events in Germany and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year.
