Aviator Brewing Company (which is local for me) makes a damn fine Octoberbeast! :thumbsup:

OktoberBeast - 7.8%alc/vol. Our version of an Oktoberfest or Marzen style beer. This is a beer that was usually brewed in March and aged cold over the summer months to serve in the fall. It was usually a high gravity beer (strong in alcohol) to survive the long aging period. Our beer is copper colored and is 7.2% ABV. The beer has a higher hopping rate than most oktoberfest beers (cause we like hops). It will make you want to wear lederhosen and listen to polka music.

That sounds awesome. I'll have to see if I can find some down here. Thanks for the heads up!
