As with most of my Oktoberfest photos, they are usually lacking in quality.  See the problem is that I usually have some of Cincinnati’s finest Christian Moerlein in my other hand and we all know that is no way to take quality photos.  I was very disappointed that by the time I made my way to the Christian Moerlein booth, all the Fifth & Vine beer was sold out so I settled for some fine OTR Ale.  It was amusing to see the line at the Erdinger Biergarten since Erdinger isn’t even one of the highly regarded beers.  It took me 40 minutes to get a beer from that stand.  With 500,000 of my closest friends surrounding me, a beer in my hand and my daughter pulling on my shirt for a delicious Schmidt Haus brat, I was just happy that my Nikon didn’t suffer from one drop of spilled beer.  In a week I will get a taste of the real thing while in Germany for three weeks but until then you can view my 2007 Oktoberfest Zinzinnati photos here.
