    I know I know... it's the middle of July... BUT! For years now beer companies like Samuel Adams has been releasing there Fall variety pack and there octoberfest beers as early as the end of July.. and I was wondering is there anyone else but me that is actually excited and ready for the fall/winter beers that are going to be released soon?

    Me, me, me..I drink them all year:
    The "soon" ones I'm interested are: Stone Woot Stout 2017 & DFH Oak Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout.

    I'm leaving stouts out of the equation as I can drink them all year long. But one beer that I love to get ahold of in the fall is Capital's Autumnal Fire. Definitely one of my favorite late year drinkers.

    There is a beer fest I hit every year at the end of july and for whatever reason after a full day of drinking outside in the blazing heat, the beers that stand out are the pumpkin beers the breweries decided to pour. Looking forward to that taste, the event is coming up next week.

    I just turned 21 in May so I have yet to experience much beers lol. I am really excited for leinenekugels harvest patch shandy and there octoberfest. I'm also excited to try Samuel Adams variety Fall pack which will have there Octoberfest in it.

    If you're jonesing for Oktoberfests, good locals include 3F Munsterfest, HA Lager town, surlyfest, new Glarus staghorn.

    You should also familiarize yourself with all the original German Oktoberfest beers, preferable side-by-side with lots of friends. Consider this the greatest homework assignment you'll ever receive.
