Paulaner Launches New 5-Liter Mini Keg for the Ultimate Oktoberfest Celebration

WHITE PLAINS, NY (September 4th, 2025) – Just ahead of Oktoberfest season, Paulaner USA, the U.S. importer of the renowned Paulaner Brewery, is proud to introduce the Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier 5-Liter Mini Keg, offering beer enthusiasts across the U.S. the opportunity to enjoy the authentic taste of Munich’s most celebrated festival right at home. Designed to provide fresh, draft-quality beer with every pour, the 5-Liter Mini Keg ensures a simple way  for beer lovers to enjoy the renowned taste of draft Paulaner without the need for a tap system. 

One of Munich’s all-time favorites, Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier is the #1 selling Oktoberfest Bier in Germany. This world-renowned brew is crafted in Munich, to the Reinheitsgebot, Germany’s beer purity law, ensuring an unparalleled drinking experience. The Oktoberfest Bier is deep golden in color, full-bodied, wonderfully mellow and perfectly balanced with a pleasant fragrance of hops. Now available in a convenient 5-liter mini keg, Paulaner brings the same beer served at Oktoberfest in Munich straight to American homes in a draft-style, pour-it-yourself format. 

“The introduction of the Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier Mini Keg is a game-changer for those who want to celebrate Oktoberfest in an authentic way, no matter where they are,” says Andy Glaser, President and CEO of Paulaner USA. “This mini keg delivers the traditional Oktoberfest experience in a package that’s perfect for gatherings, parties and Oktoberfest celebrations of all sizes.”

Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier is the same bier served in the Paulaner Oktoberfest tents today and the favorite bier at the Munich Oktoberfest. Brewed once a year, and only available while limited supplies last, Oktoberfest Bier is the pinnacle of German brewing. At 6% ABV, it is stronger and bolder than the usual lager. Also available in 16.9 oz cans, 11.2 oz bottles, and now 5L Mini Keg. Prost Paulaner!
