Hofbrau Oktoberfest

Frau David left me a gift before his flight to Munich: three Hofbrau Oktoberfest beers and a cold stein to match, again proving he's a scholar and gentleman. Armed with these fellas, I won't be left out of the start of Oktoberfest. Classy move roomie.

So Saturday I drank while I built my hammock side table, that has over 200 corks. As I was about to fill the stein I had an unexpected visitor, an escaped neighborly English Bulldog named Monty, who is badass. He joined my building party and brew-ha-ha for a couple of hours till his master came home.
I am awesome
Below is the present David left me:
There in spirit
So the beer itself is just OK. It's fairly malty, not quite balanced and closer to a pilsner (than a lager). But let's be honest. A). It looks awesome. Okay, duh. But in the spirit of Oktoberfest, what's really important here? B). Drinkability. It's time to party here. You can drink steins of this stuff. In this light, the beer is quite a success. Who cares if it's not a BAD BOY or on THE ROCK?! Eat, drink and be merry, for I'd rather not sober up because I might have put Monty-poo in my roommate's bed after I got lost on the way to his clothes hamper. Um, that's how I roll?

ARMAGEDDON rating, but who cares? Drink, drink it up!

Here's my table for those two people who care about home crafts (mom included). It ain't perfect, but I don't really care because it's a outdoor side table. The top looks sweet though and I'm proud of it. Check, check...check it out now:
