E195: Oktoberfest Beer Tasting with Tucker Brewing Co.

Prost!  We're talking and drinking Oktoberfest this week with Tucker Brewing

This is one of our favorites shows of the year.  We cook up some brats, some soft pretzels, break out the spaetzle and obatzda, and taste through a sampling of Oktoberfest beers while talking about the history and tradition of the OG Oktoberfest in Munich.

Tucker Brewing Co. joins us for this time around.  With a focus on German-style lager and Georgia's largest beer garden they are primed and ready for Oktoberfest.  Brewmaster Tucker Eagleson and owner Ashley Hubbard share their beers and their story as they help us taste and rank nine Oktoberfest beers.  NOTE:  Yes, the brewmaster of Tucker Brewing is named Tucker, he started there about a year after they opened, and the brewery is in Tucker, GA.  TUCKER! TUCKER! TUCKER!

The end result of this year's tasting is that we have a lot of great beers available to us in the US these days.  There were no losers here.  Well, OK, there were some losers, but we're trying to be positive.  Prost!

Mark your calendars... if you're in the Atlanta area join Tucker Brewing for their Tucktoberfest celebration on Sept. 28, 2019.
