Oaktoberfest (Paso Robles, CA) – It’s time to dust off your stein and get a jump on German tradition as Firestone Walker Brewing Company is set to release their Oaktoberfest in bottles, marking the first-ever packaged release of this “Paso Märzen Bier.” Named to commemorate the brewery’s hometown of Paso Robles–Spanish for “Pass of The Oaks”–as well as the longtime presence of oak barrels as a central part of the brewery’s operation, Firestone Walker Oaktoberfest is a seasonal offering for late summer and fall, and will be available in bottles for the first time starting on August 1. Up until now, the beer was exclusively a draft-only offering originally made for the brewery’s local Oaktoberfest celebration.
