It's that time of year again: Folks are dusting off their lederhosen, Alpine hats and steins and celebrating Oktoberfest. And while Zinzinnati's annual giant in-person fest — the second largest in the world — has been canceled due to the coronavirus, there are still plenty of ways to honor the longstanding tradition with an abundance of bier, Bavarian cuisine and festive music to fill your bellies and ears.
Some bars and restaurants are officially affiliated with the Oktoberfest Zinzinnati citywide "In Za Haus" event (visit oktoberfestzinzinnati.com for a list of all of them), and others are just celebrating the centuries old Munich holiday in all its splendor.
