It’s that time of the year again when hopheads participate in the widely celebrated German tradition of consuming unbelievable quantities of beers. Oktoberfest, which dates back to 1810, is embraced by the Philippines—also a beer-loving country—and every year, during this time, restaurants, hotels, and breweries launch their gimmicks, their offerings to the thirsty crowd. And even though we’re already late to the party (the festivities start on September in Germany), there’s no reason for us to head out after a long work day and seek out the best deals and the most fun parties.
As much as we would all love to fly to Munich and experience the festival for real—and you know, see those dirndl-clad women juggling huge mugs of beers—we could only settle for what we have here as of the moment. But worry not—I have compiled the best Oktoberfest deals here for you. Time to message the gang and raise your glasses while saying “Prost!”. (And remember, make eye contact or it will be 7 years of bad sex for you.)
1 | The Perfect Pint
Are you a fan or craft beer? If you answered yes, then The Perfect Pint is definitely the place to visit this month! Until November 1, the pub is offering unlimited craft beer for only PhP599! Two pints of craft beer can easily equal this price, so I find it to be such an awesome deal. Note that The Perfect Pint serves homebrews, which means you can’t find these beers anywhere else. Don’t forget to pair your drinks with some sausages, Truffle Fries, the Heap of Bacon, or the Stinky 5-Cheese Pizza.
