    Comments Off on Discoveries at the Jungle Oktoberfest Edition: Gerolstiner Mineral Waters and Dallmayr Coffee

    Oktoberfest has a rich history dating back to 1810, when Crown Prince Ludwig married Princess Teresa of Sassonia-Hildburghausen. They invited all of the citizens of Munich to attend the celebration, which was held in the fields in front of the city gate.

    Now, Oktoberfest is celebrated around the world. Coincidentally, Cincinnati actually hosts the second largest Oktoberfest second only to Munich itself!

    Comments Off on Weekend of Fire 2017 – A Taste of What’s to Come!

    ​If there’s one thing about Jungle Jim’s, it’s that we’re always on the lookout for the next big thing.
