KC Bier Co Oktoberfest
The Festbier was flowing at KC Bier Co’s 2014 Oktoberfest. The Bavarian atmosphere of KC Bier Co makes it one of the best places to be for an Oktoberfest. Many people dressed up in their finest lederhosen and dirndl to celebrate. A wooden keg containing Festbier was tapped at noon and several bier lovers filled their Maßkrug full of the bier.
Overall, it was a fun time with a Stein Holding Competition, play area for kids, German foods, and a lot of bier drinking. The biers were delicious, as usual. The servers should have been a little more knowledgeable on the history of Oktoberfest and more attentive to their customers. It didn’t have the big feel of Oktoberfest that I would have expected from a German bier place. I got there early enough where parking wasn’t an issue, but I could imagine later in the day it was. The food and some merchandise was marked up in price for the event, which is understandable, but making sure the price tags and signs were current should have been done.
The fest continues today from noon until 9pm with many of the same activities from yesterday. The Stein Holding Competition will be at 3pm and Lederhosen & Dirndl Competition begins at 6pm.
