Draft Magazine Feed: Can you handle this?

For all the joy beer bottles bring to the masses, there is a major quality they lack: the ability to be hoisted in the air and collided with your buddy’s bottle, Oktoberfest-style. Any attempt at aerial suds-knocking is met with bruised knuckles or that awkward “bottle-neck cheers.” Well, leave it to the Germans to solve that problem: Behold, the Beck’s Stein Bottle Holder. It’s a simple silver device that gives your favorite bottle of brew steinlike style. Buy yours at your local grocery store or at www.budshop.com.

Beck's Beer Holder

Of course, you can toss any ol’ brew in the holder, but it’s meant for a Beck’s Oktoberfest, a pilsner brewed in Bremen according to the German Purity Law. The 5.2% ABV-brew pours a copper-caramel color with a tinge of ruby and a full, creamy head. It has a sweet, malty, hearty flavor-all the requisite characteristics of an Oktoberfest-but without the overwhelming, sticky taste some versions of the style tend to take on. The flavor is full-bodied, but the mouthfeel is especially crisp and light-which means our Oktoberfest celebrations will last well into the night.

Find Beck’s Oktoberfest draft at your local haunt or in bottles through October. For more information, visit www.becksbeer.com.
