Aldi Launches Oktoberfest Inspired Pilsner Beer Flavoured Crisps

Aldi is launching Specially Selected German Pilsner Beer Hand Cooked Crisps (£1.15, 150g) as part of a brand-new range dedicated to Bavarian beer festival, Oktoberfest.

Combining two shopper favourites, crisps and beer, the limited-edition launch will land in stores nationwide from 26th September.

But the German-themed crisps don’t stop there. Sausage fans will be delighted to learn that Aldi is also introducing Specially Selected Bratwurst Sausage Hand Cooked Crisps (£1.15, 150g) and Specially Selected Currywurst Sausage Hand Cooked Crisps (£1.15, 150g) to shelves — the perfect accompaniment to an ice-cold beer.

Next up in the Oktoberfest line-up is the generously sized Giant Pretzels (99p, 150g) and equally delicious Pretzel Sticks (99p, 150g) — perfect for sharing with friends and family.

Those looking to fully embrace the German tradition can top off homemade bratwursts with Baxter’s Kraut (£1.89, 480g). Packed full of crunchy, salted and fermented cabbage, this tangy crunchy side dish is perfect with sausages, salads and sandwiches.

Why not wash it down with Aldi’s selection of German beer? Available in stores from 26th September, Brewdog’s Oktoberfest Lager (£13.99, 12 x 330ml) returns to shelves after exclusively launching in stores last year, offering vibrant citrus and herbal notes.

For those that prefer bottled tipples, Aldi is also welcoming the following pilsners to stores this ‘Aldifest’:

Erdinger Oktoberfest (£1.99, 500ml)
Erdinger Weissbier (£1.69, 500ml)
Benediktiner Weissbier (£2.49, 500ml)
