Ozapft is’
My association with the attached picture explained as follows: “Ozapft is” is German dialect (Bavarian) for “es ist angezapft” meaning you just tapped a keg of beer. Phonetic pronunciation help should look like this: awww-ts-uh-pft-e-s. Thus this is the ultimate motto for the Oktoberfest (no need to explain that, right? I saw Oktoberfest Sausages at Costco)I figured this little bit of information qualifies for a schnelles (quick) Lingo Bingo and blends in with my sharing thoughts on the internet.

Very neat picture.. And a great quote.
You guys have costco in Austria? I did’t know they were world wide… I just though they existed in North America… Very interesting.
I wonder if they all look the same too - gian warehouse with 50ft ceilings… and deserts that are more tempting than the next. Haha.
OH no, my costco experience goes back to my stay in CA. The Ozapft is reminds me of the Oktoberfest Sausages at Costco, couldn’t help but mention it…
