"At the 30-acre Loudoun County farm and production facility — prized by local brewers for a “land beer” approach that uses Virginia grains, well water, and native yeasts — the third annual Oktoberfest will tap four beers: Oider Ursprung (made with 65% Bavarian grain), a malty Ursprung Festbier, a rich and dry Bauernhof Alt blended with chocolate wheat, and the Corn Crib Farmhouse Ale; the event also includes bratwurst, traditional music and games, German-garb and stein-holding competitions, a $24 ticket that includes a commemorative half-liter stein, and a family day on Sunday when kids get in free." - Gabe Hiatt
