While more of the official Oktoberfest is in September than in October, personal celebrations can continue well past the official end date. In fact, the restaurant mentioned above does not start its celebration until October, and ends well into November.
For another chance to have a German food feast, consider a Christmas party. I once taught in a high school seminary, and the priests who composed most of the faculty had German names. At Christmas they invited me and a few others to a Christmas party, then passed out sheet music in German. Yes, many of our Christmas traditions, especially carols, have German roots, so incorporating a German meal into a Christmas party can be appropriate.

German cocolate cake is not really German, since it was created in America by a person who happened to be named German. Strudel is apparently Austrian, and Bavaria being Austria's neighbor has accepted it.
When I first read this article, I meant to ask if German chocolate cake is really German and if strudel is not only generally German but also specifically Bavarian.
I typed Oktoberfest cups into the search on Amazon and paper cups came up in abundance. One indicates it is for hot or cold use. Since I am so close to the limit o products I can link to I cannot add it.
blackspanielgallery, Thank you for practical information, pretty pictures and product lines.
It looks like all the best-known drink containers perhaps hold beer. Would there be other Oktoberfest-themed containers for cold, non alcoholic drinks and for hot drinks such as coffee? If so, what kind of coffee (espresso type? super-strong, super-sweet?) would tend to be served?
