Ein Prosit

If you love beer and you’ve never had the pleasure of experiencing Munich’s Oktoberfest, you might want to get yourself a plane ticket come September (yes, September). Seriously, one of the most fun experiences in my life, running around with the Polizei from tent to tent as fights broke out and were over by the time we got there.

I’ve never seen “Three Sheets”, which is a travelogue (hosted by Zane Lamprey) that previously aired on the Fine Living Network. Apparently Lamprey goes to different countries to sample food and drink and to participate in local alcohol related customs. Now this is my kind of show! It seems a bunch of rabid fans rallied a Facebook campaign and a beer shipment to get the Travel Channel to pick up the show. And what do you know — success! Episodes began airing June 30th and if the show does well, there may be further seasons.

A toast! And a taste of Oktoberfest, just because.

This show used to be on the channel MOJO which was a showcase to HDTV when it was new and also had a lot of shows dedicated to drinking. I've been reading this site for a few years and this is the first I've heard of one of the greatest corny docs about beer.

GOOD! Now I can finally watch it. Never wanted to pay for MOJO/HDTV.

I'd like this show a lot better if not for the silly sound effects.

FYI: no beer-loving German would be caught dead holding a Guinness at Oktoberfest. Replace that header pic with a guy sucking down a golden Hef and you'd be farther away from hypochrisy.

FUCK YES! FUCK YES! FUCK YES!

Sorry, but I love this show so much! I have learned so much about the drinking customs of the world, and it has given me such travel lust. it makes sense to have it on the Travel Channel - which I have - so I'm freakin' pumped!

PROST!

Oh, and BAM, that pic is from the Ireland episode. I recognize the bar.
