There are two things Samuel Adams is known for — being a founding father of the United States of America and brewing some tasty beer. And there’s no better way to celebrate Octoberfest than at the Samuel Adams Octoberfest Experience, kicking back with a towering mug of ice cold beer while hearing music from a lineup of accordion-based bands, including Jim Gilman und Der Burgermeisters, as part of the annual O.C. Accordion Festival, aka “The Big Squeeze.”

Inside Costa Mesa’s Orange County Market Place, the weekend swap meet at the OC Fair & Event Center, this ultimate beer festival is overflowing with activities: a stein-hoisting competition with a beach cruiser bike prize and live performances from the Doo Wah Riders (country), Los Fabulocos (Tex-Mex), Bonne Musique Zydeco (Cajun/Zydeco) and The Ploughboys (Celtic). Admission also includes your choice of four 12-oz. Samuel Adams fall seasonal Octoberfest brews, Gaslamp popcorn, a giant pretzel and a food option from one of three gourmet food trucks.
