Das Es Gut
October is quickly approaching, and you know what that means… Cooler weather, falling leaves, pumpkin spice everything, and most importantly, Oktoberfest.
However, if you’re like most of you us, you can’t just take a week off of work and book a flight to Munich to take part in the festivities. But you’re in luck, because not only is New York bringing the party to you, but you can even bring it to your own house with the help of our guide to everything Oktoberfest!
So put on your favorite pair of lederhosen, grab the closest beer stein, and let’s turn your house into your very own beer garden.
