Today is a day I mark with celebration each year: the day that I first encounter a seasonal Oktoberfest brew for sale. Ah! Autumn, as good as Spring, is coming at last.
The 2004 post celebrating the first October beer is here, and explains the history of October beer for the English-speaking world. Follow the link (or just click this one) to an article called "Dragon's Milk: English October Beer."
On the same topics, a post from back in 2003 on the Merry life of Robin Hood, and a song by yours truly on the subject.
A merry day to you. Would that we could gather over a butt of good October in person.
