From Barley John’s e-mail list:

That time of the year is upon us, colder weather, falling autumn leaves, hops ready to harvest on the vine, and yes, the beer that gets its own fest designation: oktoberfest. We brewed this malty beverage in the German brewing tradition (double decoction mashing) and have been lagering this annual brew for the last 4 months and now it is time to release it to your glass. Tawny amber in color, malty to taste and subtle on hops with a clean lager finish. Come out this Thursday and help celebrate with us as we serve up a modest German menu coupled with $3.00 pints of this year’s Oktoberfest from 8-10pm. Prost!
