    The Weihenstephaner is very good, naturally. If you want to taste a good Wiesn style look for Köstritzer's I found it outstanding.

    6 or 7 years ago sam adams would've been in my top 3 but like some people have mentioned, it seems to get more and more cloying every year. Either that or my tastes have changed. Either way, it might be one of my least favorite o'fest brews now.

    Is that the Kaltenburg? Otherwise, I don't think Konig Ludwig makes and Oktoberfest.
