Starkbier Fest 2013

So this past weekend was Listermann's Starkbier fest. Sort of a companion piece to the Craft Beer Oktoberfest they put on back in the fall. And just like last time, chock full of delicious craft beer brewed right here in Cincinnati. My girlfriend, Meredith and I headed down Saturday afternoon and met up with friends to enjoy some beer and the sunshine. (I know, weird right??) To the beer!

Cincinnati Craft Beer Oktoberfest

A few weeks ago my friends and I went down to Oktoberfest Zinzinnati. I contemplated writing a blog post about it. It was certainly a good time. Good Oktoberfest beers, good food, (likely wildly unsafe yet amazingly fun) carnival rides. But really, there wasn't a ton for me to say about it. It was fun, but it was really more about the party than the beer. But this past weekend Listermann Brewing Company, along with the rest of the burgeoning Cincinnati craft beer community, got together for an Oktoberfest celebration that I can really get behind. My sister and I headed down on Saturday afternoon to see what was up. To the beer!
