"From Wednesday, September 20 to Sunday, September 24, Hofbräu München takes over the Comus Inn for five scenic days of Oktoberfest fun at the foot of Sugarloaf Mountain. Look for German food; a Hofbräu bar pouring plenty of its Oktoberfestbier, Märzen, Hefe Weizen lines; and a fully decorated Hofbräu Biergarten hosting German folk ensembles on the stage, along with awards for the best-dressed lederhosen and drindl, stein hoisting, keg races, and hot dog eating contests, with a weekend bounce house for kids. Attendees can take home an authentic Oktoberfest stein from Hofbräu, which sends hundreds of the glasses to the five-acre Montgomery County venue every year. Admission is free on Wednesday and Thursday and $10 Friday to Sunday (or $5 for kids)." - Tierney Plumb
