BEAUMONT, Texas — Last week a Beaumont brewery received a prestigious invite to make an appearance in Bavaria, Germany and take part in Oktoberfest.
"On June 17th, the Buckstin Brewing Co. inbox was graced with an email with the subject reading "Invitation Tour de Bavaria," said Buckstin in a press release.
Full email to Buckstin below:
Hi Justin, from the 21st to the 24th of September this year, we are organizing an unforgettable customer trip for selected clients. The tour kicks off on Saturday evening at the Weihenstephaner Bräustüberl with a beer tasting and a communal meal. On Sunday, we will visit three of our hop farmers in the Hallertau region together during the hop harvest and we will evaluate hops on-site. Our exploration offers insight into the meticulous process that shapes the flavors of our brews. Monday will see us all heading to the legendary Oktoberfest with reserved ProHops tables in the 'Schützen-Festzelt', and on Tuesday, we'll conclude the trip with a tour of the State Brewery Weihenstephan, the oldest brewery in existence.
Buckstin says that they have been invited to give input on hops at a farm level while being catered to at Munich’s Oktoberfest.
In the press release Buckstin says that they will be sending over a team of five people to Bavaria to continue their "beer education" from September 20th through the 30th, and that the entire trip will be documented.
This is a developing story. We will update with more if and when we receive more confirmed information.
