Shacktoberfest is Upon Us

It's time for the Shake Shack's annual Shacktoberfest celebration, which starts Friday and runs through October 14th. If you can stand the lines, you can enjoy "special Shacktoberfest offerings" as well as the regular menu:

A selection of Usinger's brats and sausages – Andouille with red pepper relish, Stuttgarter Knackwurst with cranberry horseradish relish and Italian sausage with pumpkin mostarda.

A rotating list of Concretes in flavors such as Black Forest, German Chocolate, Apple Strudel and Sachertorte.

An expanded beverage menu showcasing German-style beers ($4 each) from artisanal American breweries (Brooklyn Brewery Oktoberfest, Otter Creek Oktoberfest, Weyerbacher AutumnFest, Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale and Victory Prima Pils).

And, to get you in the mood, they'll have an accordion player Friday from 1:00 – 2:30 and again from 5:30 – 7:30. Don't forget your lederhosen.

"Cunty eyes"? WTF! Is that the best you can come up with guest? I'm not a burger expert, but having lived here all my life there are better burgers out there. Stick to your Shake Shack if it makes you so happy.

Columbus Day is coming up soon. I expect nothing less than a special Columbus burger from Shake Shack.

I have to question, yet again, the culinary tastes of Gothamist in their zeal for the consistently bad Shake Shake. The lines are always long and the food is marginal at best. Is Gothamist not getting enough money from the ads for the Darjeeling Limited and Sara "I'm a Racist" Silverman that they have to shill for this hell hole?
