Munich’s Oktoberfest begins this weekend. Several craft breweries and restaurants throughout Southern California are also celebrating, although in sometimes radically different ways than they do in Germany.
Look for vegan foods, tiki drinks, swimming pools and dogs at events beginning Friday, Sept. 19 and continuing into October.
While breweries will be serving their own products, many will have German-style beers as well.
