Oktoberfests in Westchester County in 2011

We’re talking dirndl skirts, swelling bosoms, and beer steins, folks: Think the St. Pauli girl http://www.flickr.com/photos/safoocat/2368627413/ with a buzz and seriously lowered standards. Now that I’ve got your attention, it’s Oktoberfest time, when usually uptight German people gather together at communal tables, sing songs, and listen to oompah bands. Here are some outdoor beer events to make autumn more welcome.
