The Munich Beer Festival, or Oktoberfest, is an event of superlatives - it's the largest popular festival in the world, and is staged in Munich each year. It was first staged in 1810 making it 200 years old now. Six Millions visitors from all over the world flock along every year to enjoy its very special atmosphere. For this occasion, Hofbräu brews a rich, full-bodied beer which goes down ideally with traditional Bavarian cuisine. With its deliciously bitter taste and alcoholic content of 6.3% volume, Hofbräu Oktoberfestbier is as special as the Beer Festival itself. Hofbrau Oktoberfest is a bottom-fermented, light festive beer, with a slightly sweet aftertaste. It is available from September 1st to the end of October or while stocks last.
