From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Oktoberfest, the most famous beer festival in the world, kicked off its 176th season in Munich on Saturday

The wildly popular beer drinking bonanza draws millions of lager lovers from across the planet for sixteen days of fun, festivities and hangovers. But don’t think you have to go to Germany to enjoy Oktoberfest. The world’s biggest beer fest has spawned copycat events all over the world. And if you’ve been caught on the hop because you thought the clue was in the title and the Oktoberfest actually started in October, don’t worry, we have a good selection that actually take place next month

So don your dirndl, lace up your lederhosen and let us pull you a pint with ten of the best.
