[ADV] Malaysia's Own Oktoberfest @ 1 Utama


Attended my last Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest this year at 1 Utama last Saturday! Click here and here to read about my experience at Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest which were held at Hakka Restaurant and Berjaya Times Square.

Presented by Carlsberg Malaysia, Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest provides consumers an opportunity to taste the authentic German beer and at the same time, enjoy the joyful festive mood. Like I mentioned in the previous posts, the event runs from September 26 to October 7, which means by now it has come to an end.

I’m so glad to have attended 3 of their events this year!  Witnessed a large turnout of consumers at the last event at 1 Utama especially. It was held at the old wing outdoor parking space where a big tent was set up. I could already hear the loud music and feel the party atmosphere as I was walking towards the shopping mall exit!

As usual, consumers could take home the limited edition Oktoberfest beer stein. This time they even allowed us to customize our name on the stein! Too bad I went to the counter late so didn’t make it.

So glad that Jess accompanied me this time! She stays super near from 1 Utama! Teehee.

Met up with Wenshen there towards the end of the night. By that time I was looking sweaty after all the dancing and jumping around. Can’t help since it’s outdoor T_T

There was a dunking machine this time! The same game we played during Carlsberg Where’s The Party. Throw a ball and hit the target so the fella would fall into the water container. No doubt one of my favourite games! *evil*

Of course, Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest is not solely for party-goers at Klang Valley. It was held at 18 key market squares throughout peninsular Malaysia and even East Malaysia! Here are some photos of Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest at the other states:

The authentic Umpapa band from Germany and the Carlsberg ambassadors in traditional German dress made their appearance at all of these places! Everyone in Malaysia had the chance to experience the carnival like festival!

The beers available at Malaysia’s Own Oktoberfest: (which I’m sure you’re quite familiar with by now if you’ve attended)

Carlsberg (5% ABV/ alcohol) the must-have every time.

Erdinger Weissbier (5.3% ABV) the first German wheat beer to be distributed nationwide in Germany.

Franziskaner Weissbier (5% ABV) my personal favourite despite the slight bitter taste. What a refreshing and smooth wheat beer!

Lowenbrau, (5.2% ABV) a famous beer during Oktoberfest with rather light taste.

To encourage responsible drinking, Carlsberg Malaysia is deploying their employee-ambassadors to distribute brochures and encourage consumers to test their BAC (Breath Alcohol Content).
