Beerfest makes me thirsty!
) 
A madcap romp through the underground of a sacred beer drinking event that reaches olympic proportions! Full of Hamms! It grows on you like mold. Destined to be a classic. Nothing like it since Strange Brew. Better than Beerfest Two!

This movie is extremelly funny for us simple folk. It is made by the same people who made Super Troopers and if you enjoyed it, then you will enjoy this movie. Be careful though, watching this movie does make you want to drink beer.

Beer drinkers unite!!!This movie was almost the perfect movie to watch with a bunch of drunken friends. Dragged a bit in the middle, but put it on at a party and see how many drinking games start...

Underrated
) I loved Super Troopers and wanted to see what the guys had to offer with Beerfest. It has a lot of allusions to other movies and an entertaining plot. Not quite as good as Super Troopers but a good one to add to the movie collection.

As Expected
This movie is exactly what I expected it to be. If you've seen Super Troopers or Club Dredd, then you know what you're in for. If you haven't seen any of the Broken Lizard troupe's previous comedies, they are comparable to a National Lampoon offering: juvenile humor, mild T&A, lots of dick and fart jokes.
Beerfest is the story of two young Coloradans of German stock who lose their grandfather, and are asked to go to Oktoberfest in Munich to set his remains in their rightful resting place. They are taken, by a German friend, to Beerfest - a sort of beer drinking olympics held in secret during Oktoberfest. Here they are ridiculed and humiliated by their German relatives, and grandpa's remains are desecrated.
To get revenge, the guys form their own American beer drinking team composed of a hotdog eating contest champion, a male prostitute, and a scientist who spends the bulk of his days "extracting" frog semen. Add in a lot of German women naked from the waist up, a secret recipe for the greatest beer ever invented, and a whole lot of "training" for next year's big event, and you have Beerfest.
In comparison with the other Broken Lizard films, I would say Beerfest is of about the same quality. It has some genuinely funny moments mixed in with a whole lot of mind-numbing stupidity. What really makes Beerfest special are what I like to call the "Man Show Moments," where every guy in the room has to stand up and cheer. It's one of those movies that will always be fun to watch when the guys are hanging out, having a few pints. Moreover, it pays no heed to political correctness, good taste, decorum, or any form of culture whatsoever.
Every guy I know has loved this movie, and so have most of their wives/girlfriends. Just don't take it out when anyone overly uptight or PC is around - it could make for an uncomfortable night of man bashing later. Much of the humor is in bad taste, and if people don't have a sense of humor about these things, they could be offended.
4.5/5
