1U Oktoberfest Added To My Event List Of Year
Last weekend was a great fun. Oktoberfest in 1 Utama have bring new heights to Oktoberfest celebration in Malaysia. It may not be an authentic Oktoberfest celebration, but is a good enough event that I look forward to what it will be next year.
To start with, very simple. Just buy a liter stein and start enjoying your fabulous time at the Oktoberfest tent. This event is organise by Carlsberg, so you have a few selections like Erdinger, Carlsberg and the only Oktoberfest brand Löwenbräu.
The main part of the whole event is the tent it self, it was huge. The whole place look like and airplane hangar. It actually shape like a “big onion”- if you know what I mean.Is my first time been to such a huge tent venue. Each year 1 Utama Oktoberfest come with the RM1 gimmick, but this year they scrape it off. Just simple, buy the beer and kept the stein.
The band this year is a big hit. They entertain the crowd to the max. The crowd are fully turn on after downing some good quantity of beer. There are some competition going on in between gigs. Rolling of barrels, running on steins, drinking competition, best chicken dance and so on.
How can you not turn on when the singer is standing on the table and cheering everyone up. Of course there are many minor things that can improve on the event but the atmosphere, the tent, the crowd is good itself that I give 2 thumbs up.
They even have ambulance ready just in case who knows what happen. With such big crowds, anything can happen. But on that night, everything is peaceful.
On Saturday, around 11pm heavy rain are pouring down. For most event this will be a bad news. As for this event I think is great. It turn down the humid of the air in the tent, at the same time no one can leave. So everyone get nearer and enjoy the fun to the max. As everyone already a bit tipsy, I think… haha
Of course not everyone are entertained as the tent is freaking big. They could have done better with the activities to make the crowd participate on the event or maybe some just prefer to sit down and look at other being silly.
Later that night, Minister of Tourism YB Dato’ Sri Dr Ng Yen Yen was there as well. She also participate in the Chicken dance. Would be nicer if she have down the whole stein… haha. Quite a good positive week on beer industry since the excise duty remain, minister attending Oktoberfest… maybe, just maybe Malaysia Beerfest is coming soon.
Overall, this event got plenty of room to improve, from mobile toilets to more food stall, more activity to more beer outlet, more fans to more entertainment on ground – I still think this is a great event. The crowds itself already a pure enjoyment to be there with friends. Hope next year 1 Utama Oktoberfest will be a blast, bring in more surprises. Cheers!

Guinness Anchor Berhad (GAB), the leading beer and stout company in Malaysia kicked off its month long Oktoberfest celebration today in high gear at the newly opened SOULed OUT Ampang, Menara HSC, Jalan Ampang. This is the fourth year running GAB is organising the annual Oktoberfest festival in Malaysia with a bigger selection of award-winning and iconic beers including the official Munich Oktoberfest beer, Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier, fun-filled parties, special promotions and events for more beer lovers throughout this October.

Alongside its award-winning portfolio of Tiger, Guinness, Heineken, Anchor, Kilkenny, Strongbow and Paulaner, this year, GAB also introduces three special beers that will be made available at selected outlets for consumers to enjoy throughout the month.
All hailing from Germany with unique history, exceptional pedigree and great taste, GAB presents the Hopf Ice Wheat Beer, the trendy, cutting edge beer that uses iced conditioned wheat in the brewing; 111 Zwickl Beer, the beer made for the taste of the Bavarian professional master brewers and the Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier, the official beer at the Munich Oktoberfest.

“We are proud to offer one of the most iconic beers for Oktoberfest, the Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier which many beer enthusiasts across the world have claimed to have successfully “bottled the beer-tent atmosphere” of the Munich Oktoberfest. Such praises for the beer means that Malaysian consumers should not miss out on this great opportunity to experience the world’s finest Oktoberfest beer at the selected outlets offering it during our GAB Oktoberfest celebrations,” she added.
