I would much rather drink a Marzen after October than before September, personally.

Marzens suck. /unpopular opinions

The Nazis had marzens that they made the Jews drink.

Most of it is too sweet, but Ayinger is best marzen.

You know what they didn’t have? NE IPAs.

Happy IPA Day all

That’s today? Good thing I drank a fire eagle.

Going to San Francisco for 3 days in a couple of weeks. Staying near union square. Will hit up cellarmaker, zeitgeist and toronado. Any must go to breweries or bars ?

This is my jam, right here.

Will you have a vehicle? You’ve named great places I’d go to in the area. There are also some across the bay I would recommend if you’ll have the means/desire to venture out (but I’m too lazy to lost now if not applicable to your trip).

Ayinger's good, I prefer Hacker-Pschorr, and there are a lot of American breweries that do well with the Marzen style.

HJ = Negged for bad take on Marzens.

In fact, I think I'm gonna open up an Oaktoberfest from last year and drink it today, in memoriam for HJ's lack of taste with respect to the style.

(Actually, I'm not going to do that because I'm headed for lunch at PHP Burnet.  I'll be wearing my burnt orange Longhorn ballcap.  If any of you are there and see me, yell out muledick and I'll buy you a pint)

 

 

I have zero issue with people not liking marzens/Oktoberfests.  More for me.

Which IPA are you going to get?

Agree 100%.  Apparently the general market does not...
Also might be why we see more labeling these days as Marzen or just a general "Festbier" rather than specific Oktoberfest branding.
 
 


Ayinger’s Octoberfest showed up this week. Temps are supposed to drop 10 degrees next weekend, so I guess bring it on.

Nope just walking or Uber for me. I’ve been to a few places in Oakland a while back. My days will be busy with work so mainly have evenings to venture out. Monday is my free day.

City Beer Store is over in the vicinity of Cellarmaker and has both beers on tap and also package beers. Lucky 13 is a great divey bar that I love, if for no other reason, for having Pliny the Younger (multiple pours and with AUTF from here) there last year. Heard it was gonna close at some point to due redevelopment in the area. Walked from there to the Toronado one night.

Believe it or not, Electric Jellyfish.  :)

(and Bearded Seal, and Live Oak Hefe)

My favorite can by far. Beer is on par with the rest of AS neipas, being delicious af.0125F704-F2AB-432C-85BF-0F4618F06232.thumb.jpeg.66bdb03c61689394f0628030080fdbe5.jpeg

Dear Surly Beer Experts (in Austin),

 

Does any store Carry Jester King’s Fen Tao and/or montmorency vs balaton? Or do these have to be purchased at jester king?

We just got Montmorency in Boise a couple of weeks ago. I was surprised to see that but it’s possible. I think Fen Tao would be more difficult to find.

Both have to be purchased at jester king, but not sure they have both, or even one at the moment

Fen Tao came out last weekend, and Jester King said they don't anticipate distribution of it. Pretty sure it's still available at the brewery, but won't know for sure until they update their bottle list later this week. They still had Montmorency bottles as of this past weekend.

If any of you are headed out there and would like to mule me a bottle of each I would be most grateful.

Well fuck. But thanks for the information.

Wish I could get a couple of bottles of each. I’m just never in Austin in the weekends unless it’s for a game.
