Got bier? At the Oktoberfest Asia 2013, which premieres in Singapore this year, they got plenty.
In celebration of the world-renowned Oktoberfest, the Keppel Island Plaza at the Marina Keppel Bay will be transformed into a hip and happening venue from 16 to 19 October 2013. During this time, beer lovers and foodies alike will be treated to German beer and liquor, traditional Bavarian grub, and some live entertainment.
Some of the beers to be served will come from the finest breweries of Paulanaer Brauhaus, Schneider Weisse, and Spaten. Jagermeister, who will be showing support, will be holding a secret party in the middle of the festivities.

An Oktoberfest celebration won’t be complete without snacks. Some of the traditional items you can look forward to are the Schweinshaxe (pork knuckles), Bratwurst mit Sauerkraut (German sausages), meatloaf, and goulash.
Sounds good? There’s more! Legendary footballer Dietmar Hamann, who is the event’s official ambassador, will be making an appearance for the whole duration of the event. The former footballer from European football clubs in Bayern Munich and Liverpool will be conducting a meet-and-greet session for fans and event-goers.
What is an Oktoberfest celebration without entertainment? To bring the traditional festive mood in Singapore, the iconic band called The Original Hofbrauhaus from Munich, Germany will make an appearance. The four-day event will also feature local acts such as the comedic act Comedy Pimp and the drum beats band Wicked Aura.
