Maybe it’s a smidge odd that the Second Annual Oktoberfest in Aspen is being celebrated at the end of September … but nonetheless, the Wienerstube celebrates German traditions with live music, authentic Austrian and Bavarian food, and, naturally, beer! wienerstube.com, 970.925.3357

Aspen: Only 63 days ’til ski season … The Meeting
Although its name is sort of ominous, The Meeting is not. It’s the convergence of ski and snowboard (who see each other like step-siblings) and film and star athletes all in the little town of Aspen. Today through Sunday, The Meeting welcomes winter sport lovers, top athletes and renowned filmmakers with parties, a fashion show…
Austin: Four Seasons Dive in Movie [updated]
The Blind Side is ONLY my favorite movie ever. It has surpassed Top Gun, and nothing had surpassed Top Gun since I saw it in 1995. Or somewhere around then. Anyway, this fall the Four Seasons is hosting Dive in Movies (like Deep Eddy’s, only better, because it’s the FOUR SEASONS) where you can lounge…
Austin: Weekend!
How excited are you for Step Up 3D? I’m seeing it tonight. After happy hour where I plan on trying some new Thirsty Planet beer. Yep, Austin has a new brewery–Thirsty Planet–that has three beers: a super-hoppy Buckethead IPA (I won’t be trying that), a 50/50 barley/red wheat Yellow Armadillo, and a malty Thirsty Goat…
Austin: Weekend Hops & Pops

Aspen: Um, duh? Food & Wine Classic Weekend
It’s this weekend, kids. If you didn’t have the $1,185 to buy the big tickets, or even the $295 to buy a 1-day pass (steal! if that’s your cup of tea anyway), you can still enjoy the Food & Wine melee with the rest. Word on the street is that there are over 100 private…

Aspen: Chili Pepper & BrewFest
In an event you’d think you’d see in Texas, Snowmass is hosting the 7th annual unofficial summer kick-off, The Chili Pepper & Brew Fest. The chili is legit–it’s part of the International Chili Society’s chili competitions and tastings in Snowmass, while microbrewers face off in a prestigious summer ale competition featuring 50 plus breweries (listed…
