Angel City to Release Oktoberfest

08 Aug 2014 --- For beer lovers, late September/early October is the best time of the year. It’s the two-plus weeks when Oktoberfest unleashes its beer-flowing, schnitzel-eating, game-playing traditions throughout the land. It’s a time for beer enthusiasts to raise their mugs and toast what’s become one of the most sensational celebrations in the world.

In honor of the international festival, Angel City Brewery is launching its Oktoberfest beer to bring a little taste of the annual celebration in Munich to the modern-day Angelenos.

Angel City Brewery’s Oktoberfest is much like the brewer who makes it – red, sweet and German-inspired. It has a 6.0% ABV and 20 IBUs. The caramel-y, German lager style beer boasts lower IBUs because of its strong malt flavor backbone. Oktoberfest is available in the Public House, as well as on draft at local bars and restaurants, and in 6-packs and cases at markets and liquor stores across Los Angeles.

“To some, Oktoberfest is the world’s biggest party celebrating man’s greatest achievement: beer,” said Head Brewer Dieter Foerstner. “For me, Oktoberfest is the time of year when you get together with family and friends to celebrate, well, being with family and friends. Having a great beer to celebrate with, that’s perfection.” Angel City is hosting a week-long Oktoberfest celebration in September. Keep an eye out on their website for more information.

The Public House is Angel City’s own 19-tap bar serving an ever-changing roster of classic and newly inspired beer. The bar is open 7 days a week with a full calendar of events ranging from weekly industry and trivia nights, to art shows, live music and festivals. Private event space is also available. The Public House is open Monday-Wednesday, 4:00pm – 10:00pm, Thursday and Friday 4:00pm – 12am, Saturday 12:00pm – 12:00am, and Sunday 12:00pm – 10:00pm.
