It\u2019s when my year starts and ends in my head \u2013 the center of my beer universe. This is Oktoberfest season! There aren\u2019t very many things that compare to a great Oktoberfest festival, and here in Cincinnati there is one festival that is unlike any other one:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oktoberfest Zinzinnati.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we prepare for this epic event, which takes place at Sawyer Point and Yeatman\u2019s Cove downtown September 17-20th 2026 I thought we should probably sit down with the folks that make it all happen. Amy Fitzgibbons is the Vice President of Marketing and Communications for the Cincinnati Regional Chamber, and if anyone can give us a peek into this year\u2019s festival and why we should be getting really exited for it, it\u2019s her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talk about what makes this festival unlike any other, and what they are doing this year to kick it up a notch for the big fiftieth anniversary. We recorded this episode from the Sam Adams taproom in OTR, partially because I love that taproom, but also because Oktoberfest Zinzinnati wouldn\u2019t be even a shadow of what it is without the support of Sam Adams. It\u2019s a great backdrop to also talk about what you should be drinking while you\u2019re at the festival this year!<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We talked about the food, the events, the VIP experiences, the merch\u2026 if you\u2019re not staring at the calendar waiting for this festival, already\u2026 you\u2019re nuts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just as a reminder: if you like this episode, or any of the stuff that I create, you can always become a Gnomie by going to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegnarlygnome.com\/support\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.TheGnarlyGnome.com\/support<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 it helps more than you realize!<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;margin-top:32px;margin-bottom:32px;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" style=\"margin-bottom:24px\"\/>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" style=\"margin-top:4px;margin-bottom:10px\">Discover more from The Gnarly Gnome<\/h3>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;font-size:15px\">Subscribe to get the latest posts sent to your email.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Podcast: Download This is the time of year that I wait 12 months for.
