Round 92 - OKTOBERFEST! (2021)

<p>O'zapft is! Bust out the lederhosen and dirndls, The Hop’s annual Oktoberfest celebration is finally here! With the massive Munich festival suspended for a second straight year, Stephen &amp; Gabe explore some of the most authentic German beers available on this side of the Atlantic. There are currently only six breweries permitted to serve beer at Munich’s Oktoberfest. Having featured Paulaner and Spätenbrau on last year’s episode, we turn to Hacker-Pschorr and Hofbräu-München in 2021. Then, true to tradition, we’ll return stateside to sample several American versions of the classic Märzen style. Prost ihr Säcke!</p> <p>Featured beers: Hacker-Pschorr Oktoberfest Märzen, Hofbräu München Oktoberfestbier, Dust Bowl Oktoberfest &amp; Ross Brewing’s Jacktoberfest Pumpkin Märzen. Plus: Gabe’s “tiny little man” is on full display in a record breaking, earth shattering, mind blowing edition of our <em>Can Arts &amp; Crafts</em> segment!</p> --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. <a href="https://anchor.fm/app">https://anchor.fm/app</a> --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thehop/message
