A festival that gives you an excuse to drink.

October 19,2010

An annual festival with its roots in Germany, Oktoberfest brings people together from late September to Mid October for 18 days. Already in its 200th year, copious amounts of alcohol is consumed, and the festival has spread to numerous parts of the world, including Singapore.

Be part of the festival celebrated by millions around the world. Make your Oktoberfest experience authentic by hosting your own beer drinking competition. The following are some items you might want to consider when hosting this event:

Beer Keg: There’s no better way to keep your beer ice cold than with a good old beer keg. These aluminium barrels come with their own tap, and ensure that your grog stays cold even in the hottest weather.

Beer Steins and Yard Glasses: Traditionally, ale is drunk from a Yard; an elongated glass with a rounded bottom. It is usually a yard long, hence the name, and can hold about 1.4litres, depending on the diameter. These are used in beer drinking competitions.

Apparel: What better way to thank people for coming to your event than with a shirt or lanyard to show they were in attendance?

Trophies: Reward your champs with a prize to remember their momentuous triumph over the rest.
