It seems that every bar, restaurant, and liquor store has some sort of Oktoberfest celebration this time of year. I will admit I have been a bit busy lately and missed a few good Oktoberfest activities but here are a few that you can still look forward to.
Fritz and Franz Beirhaus, Coral Gables- 10/2-10/11- Fritz and Franz has been putting one of the oldest Oktoberfest celebrations in South Florida. This being its 15th anniversary is the perfect reason to check it out this year. The celebration runs now through the 11th. They feature various Oktoberfest beers and other great German beers as well. You can also enjoy the sweet sounds from the groups Laterndl Trio from St.Johann im Pongau, Salzburg and Alpenland Gaudi from Hinterstoder in Upper Austria.
