Oktoberfest is Wherever you Are

Oktoberfest isn't just in Germany, of course. There are events all around the United States this month celebrating the brewer's art. Here are a few to look for on your travels.

Each Thursday in October, the Atlanta Botanical Garden hosts the Fest-of-Ale, featuring a selection of seasonal beers selected by Hop City, live music, and nighttime viewing of their fall Scarecrows in the Garden exhibit. The garden is an easy walk from the W Atlanta - Midtown; stop and pick up a flashlight on the way.

On Oct. 17, KC Beerfest gives folks the opportunity to sample nearly 75 beers from around the world and lets you keep the glass as a souvenir. Continue your taste test at Flying Saucer, a short cab ride from the Westin Crown Center.

Flying Saucer's Fort Worth and Austin branches are celebrating their own Fall Beer Festivals on Oct. 17 and 24, respectively. For $15, try out 10 beers from categories including "Texas' Best Brews," "Cap'n Keith's Picks" and "You're Not Worthy." They're close to the Sheraton Fort Worth and Sheraton Austin, respectively. In Austin, you can enjoy a film with your beer at the Alamo Drafthouse.
