This year marks the 200th anniversary of Oktoberfest, and the kegs were tapped this weekend to kick off the world’s largest beer festival in Munich. If you can’t join the millions of people from all over the world that descend on the Bavarian town every year, don’t worry: Grab your stein and head over to these Valley events, where you can get your fill of authentic German fare, polka dancing, and, of course, plenty of das Bier action.
