Oktoberfest

Octoberis the tenth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars and one of seven months with a length of 31 days. The eighth month in the old Roman calendar, October retained its name (from the Latin "octo" meaning "eight"). Celebration of trick or treating or as they call it Halloween to Americans and Europeans, Teacher's Day, from Spongebob Squarepants "Leif Erikson Day". As for the Germans it's Oktoberfest  or "die Weisn"

I never liked the taste of beer, i just don't like it that's why i don't drink alcohol. I don't know why people love it so much in spite of the horrible taste. From my understanding, Alcoholic beverages such as Beer made from ethanol and barley is a motor depressing agent which could make you "Tipsy" or "Woozy". It affects your movement making you limited of fast movements except for falling. 

The alcoholic strength of beer is usually 4% to 6% alcohol by volume, but it may be less than 2% or greater than 25%. Beers having an ABV of 60% (120 proof) have been produced by freezing brewed beer and removing water in the form of ice, a process referred to as "ice distilling".
Though, Beer is part of the drinking culture of various nations and has acquired social traditions such as beer festivalspub games, and pub crawling. It is still frowned upon society because of its availability to minors; intoxicating effects leading to Alcoholism, Alcohol Withdrawal and Crimes.
On a lighter note, in some Culture Beer is the source of bonding with friends and family.It is what starts a conversation, friendship or asking someone out. As they say "Let's Drink to that!." Family occasions are never without alcoholic beverages. One would know that there is a celebration when you see them with an ice cold, frothy mug. Even just watching the sports channel in a bar or just hanging out with friends, Beer is always present.
In some way i do like Beer, how it keeps everybody close, in parties and how it makes the world smaller.
