Description
The Broken Lizard comedy group returns to the big screen in a comedy that proves revenge, like beer, is best served cold. When American brothers Todd and Jan Wolfhouse (Erik Stolhanske and Paul Soter) are sent to Germany on a mission to spread their grandfather’s ashes at Oktoberfest, they stumble upon a super-secret, centuries-old, underground beer games competition—Beerfest—the Olympics of beer drinking. At Beerfest, the brothers receive a less than warm welcome from their German cousins, the Von Wolfhausens, who shun Todd and Jan, slander their heritage, and worst of all, drink them under the table. Can they ever get their revenge?

Fun Film Info
Trivia: Steve Lemme's character, Charlie 'Fink' Finklestein, is named after the character Barton Fink, a Coen Brothers movie of the same name. Steve wears the same glasses and has the same curly hairstyle as Barton Fink. Goofs: when Fink is trying to explain the boot on the chalkboard at their training area, he circles the toes of the boot continuously leaving a pronounced circle. When they cut back to him talking, it is now just a single perfect circle. Quotes: Pim Scutney: Your all for a coat and no trousers, you are. Steve "Fink" Finklestein: I'm sorry, one more time? Rog Gobshire: Shove off! We're gonna put the skitters in your Alan Whickers, you plonker! Barry Badrinath: [Looking to Fink] Do you know what he's saying?
