I think someone went to the Hubertus Country Club at Luddenham last year. And it's mildly local from Winmalee. I was contemplating it myself this year. not sure if I'll get the chance though.

Lowenbrau is great, but can get expensive. If you are looking for an Oktoberfest festival, there normally is one at Fairfield each year. Never been but have driven by while it has been on during the past couple of years. Always seems to have big crowds. Watch the cops breath testing everyone leaving just by the front gate though.

there is the Concordia club across the road from Tempe station and they usually have a festival....but small, only 2 tents outside the club

cheers guys a few options there go with. The lowenbrau would be allright except everytime we get in the city by train just for a beer sampling day we end up coming home blind minus a few people we have lost, and all the guys with partners (including me) end up sleeping in the doghouse for the next week, duff where abouts in fairfield is the festival.

cheers,kingy

p.s we'll still probably come home blind from a festival as well

Cheers guys we had all intentions of going to oktoberfest in fairfield but after having a good yarn we thought wed be better off doing a pub crawl in the city.
As im not a city regular i dont have much of an idea as of yet but these are on my high priority list
This is what were doing on sunday im still to sit down and work out a travell path/route were going to take
Im not sure of these places As we have never been to any but im sure there within walkin distance.

Equilibrium
Lowenbrau
The australian
and The Red oak

The James Squire @ King Street wharf will whack you with a hefty 15% surcharge for drinking there on a weekend. Unfortunately this is not something that is used to cover penalty rates for the staff :angry:
The Pumphouse has St.Peter's Blonde & Killagh Stout as well as the Thunderbolt on tap. Great value
Cheers
