Japan-Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Okinawa, Yokohama: Japan Oktoberfest

Great Japan Beer Festival

Although Japan is at the same starting line as China in the matter of craft beer, the Japanese who are full of ingenuity and earnest in brewing wine soon left China far behind. Since 1998, JapanCraft BeerAssociation has started to hold Japanese Oktoberfest.

Every year, the Oktoberfest is held in five cities, namely Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Okinawa and Yokohama. Hundreds of beers from hundreds of wineries participate in the Oktoberfest. Usually, the ticket for a single game is 52 yen (equivalent to 26 yuan RMB), and there is no other cost. You can drink freely when you enter the door, so it is not too cool for friends who have a good capacity for alcohol!

In previous years, most Japanese Oktoberfest was held in early June, but due to the COVID-19 epidemic this year, the date of Oktoberfest was postponed to early September. Friends who want to go to Japan for a beer must not miss it!

Canada-Montreal: Montreal Oktoberfest

Montreal Mondialde la Biere

Founded in 1994, the Montreal Oktoberfest has brought Quebec beer into the hearts of more and more people. The Montreal Oktoberfest is usually held in the second week of June. At this time of the year, nearly 1, beer lovers come here to enjoy more than 5 different flavors of beer provided by the Oktoberfest.

China-Qingdao: Qingdao International Beer Festival

Qingdao International Beer Festival

This must be the Oktoberfest that everyone here wants to go to! Qingdao Beer Festival is held on the second weekend of August every year for 16 days. This may be the only Oktoberfest that has not been affected by the epidemic this year. A few days ago, Qingdao International Oktoberfest opened on time. This year's Oktoberfest brought together more than 1,5 beers from more than 4 countries and regions, and more than 2 fashion events in six categories, including international exchanges, economic and trade exhibitions, culture and sports.

I have to say that this Oktoberfest, which once made people feel a little rustic, has now grown to an outrageous scale. Looking around the world, apart from the Oktoberfest in Munich, it is difficult to find a Oktoberfest of similar scale.

Although China is still the world of industrial beer at present, there are many industrial beers in this Tsingtao Beer Festival, but more and more wineries bring their high-quality craft beer to the Oktoberfest, so that more people can taste the craft beer from all over the world!

Belgium-Leuven: ZYTHOS Oktoberfest

Belgium is recognized as a beer kingdom, which is the best in both quality and quantity in the world. Undoubtedly, there are many Oktoberfest festivals here, and ZYTHOS is the originator of many Oktoberfest festivals in Belgium. By the way, Zythos means beer in ancient Greek, but because? Beer Festival? This kind of translation is too awkward, so let's call it ZYTHOS Oktoberfest!

Every year, Oktoberfest has a different theme color, which is the main color in posters, glasses, T-shirts and other places that can be seen. For example, in 211, the color was black to commemorate the last time Saint Nicholas was held, while in 212, it was burgundy to celebrate the relocation of the venue to Leuven.

you can't smoke when drinking here! In order to let people taste wine better, the whole venue is completely smoke-free. And there is a consultation booth in the center of each hall, where you can consult experienced beer consultants and get very professional and easy-to-understand suggestions on beer. There are more than 1 Belgian breweries participating in the Oktoberfest every year, supplying more than 5 kinds of beer. You only need to spend 3 euros, rent a 15 ml tasting cup (of course, you can also keep it as a souvenir), and then buy a handful of tokens, and you can start drinking!

unfortunately, the ZYTHOS beer festival in April 22 was forced to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 epidemic. If you want to go to Belgium to experience this beer festival, you can only wait until 221!

Britain-London: British Oktoberfest

Great British Beer Festival

Every year in the first or second week of August, the British Oktoberfest sponsored by CAMRA (Campaignfor RealAle) is staged in London. However, drunkards in Britain prefer to call it? The biggest bar in the world? . Every year, countless people come here for beer. After all, there are nearly 1 kinds of beer from Britain, Belgium, Germany, the United States and other countries!

The variety and quality of beer at the British Oktoberfest far exceed the ordinary beer in the supermarket, and the wineries that can be invited will naturally show their good wines with their own housekeeping skills. At the same time, the British Beer Championship will be held during the Oktoberfest, which is a beer competition with quite high professional level. As for music and food, it goes without saying that these are all necessary options for Oktoberfest.

However, the British Beer Festival originally scheduled for early August this year was also cancelled due to the epidemic. Recently, British drunks who are not afraid of death complain about the cancellation of Oktoberfest every day at home, which makes us wonder how crazy these alcoholics who have been holding back for two years will be by the British Oktoberfest in 221!

USA-Denver: American Oktoberfest

Great American Beer Festival

Different from other Oktoberfest festivals, the American Oktoberfest held in Denver, Colorado is an activity focusing on judging beer.

During the three days in late September or early October every year, professional breweries, amateur brewers and beer lovers from all over the United States gather in Denver. Nearly 2 beer experts and volunteers from various countries formed a strong jury lineup to judge thousands of different types of beer from hundreds of American breweries.

Of course, amateur craft lovers can also taste the American craft wine here and learn more about craft beer!

this year's Oktoberfest will open on time on September 24th, and the epidemic situation in the whole country is still not effectively controlled, which has to be worrying? How many people will be infected in this beer festival attended by tens of thousands of people?

Germany-Munich: Oktoberfest

Today's Top1 must be the world-famous Oktoberfest! As the largest Oktoberfest in the world, Oktoberfest in Munich is always imitated, but never surpassed.

Oktoberfest in Munich originated in 181. It was originally held to celebrate the wedding of Prince Ludwig, but now, this event has nothing to do with the wedding!

Oktoberfest in Munich usually ends on the first Sunday in October for 16 days. If the sun sets on October 1st or 2nd in the first week of October, Oktoberfest will last until the 3rd, and the total number of days is 18 or 17!

Since there are too many tourists attending the Oktoberfest, and some older tourists can't stand harsh music for a long time, since 25, the organizers of the Oktoberfest have kindly proposed? Quiet beer festival? The concept is that before 6 pm, only relaxing music can be played, and the volume can't exceed 85 decibels. However, as long as after 6 pm, all kinds of music will appear, and the carnival will begin immediately, and the venue will suddenly enter the rhythm of high explosion!

Due to the epidemic, this year's Oktoberfest in Munich has also been cancelled ..... It's a pity, but life is much more important than wine, okay? ! Anyway, I can only hope that next year's Oktoberfest will bring us more excitement. Those friends who want to go to Munich but have empty wallets can also take this opportunity to save money! ~
