Why is Oktoberfest in September? The answer goes back to 1810 during the dark days of beer drinking before the modern miracle of refridgeration. In those days in Germany, beer would never be brewed in the summer months. The batches would never turn out good. The last batches were usually made in March. These last batches would have higher alcohol content to take advantage of alcohol as a preservative.

Traditionally, there would be a big fest starting on the last Saturday in September until the First Sunday in October. The purpose was to drink up the old stocks of beer to make room for the new brew that would be made after harvest. The tradition goes back to the 15th and 16th Centuries. 7KH ÀUVW RIÀFLDO 2NWREHUIHVW ZDV KHOG in 1810.
