Oktoberfest 2006!

San Francisco hosts an Oktoberfest bash every year at Fort Mason in Mid October... and this year I went. And I went big.
First of all, if not for the beer, then for the shennanigans, one must go to Oktoberfest. And even better would be for the fact that you can drink red wine in a giant beer stein and it's totally acceptable. You better believe I did just that.

I had a tasty cabernet-merlot blend that was probably the German equivalent of two Buck Chuck in the states... but that was ok. It held its own quite well. It had a full flavor--probably the cabernet side, with a smooth finish--the merlot side. Either way it was delish and got the job done: "Ich bin dicht!" (I am f***ed up!).
