After tasting 10 of their handcrafted sausage varieties, we picked our favorites and put them (along with other condiments) in an exclusive bundle that showcases the flavors of Germany—by way of Vermont. This box has 1 pound each of savory Knackwurst, hearty Bauernwurst, bright IPA-infused Beer Bratwurst and cheesy Käsewurst, all made with local ingredients. Named for its characteristic snap (“knack” means “crack” in German), Knackwurst is an all-pork sausage that’s finely ground, whipped to a smooth emulsion and lightly smoked for a snappy bite. By contrast, the Bauernwurst is a coarse-ground blend of beef and pork with caraway and mustard seeds, which cut the smoke with a sharp, savory punch. The Beer Bratwursts get a hefty dose of crisp, hoppy flavor from local IPA Lawson’s Sip O’Sunshine; it has a slightly coarser grind for a traditional texture. Finally, we have our favorite sausage of the bunch: Rich creamy Käsewurst combines punchy white pepper and garlic with buttery Jasper Hill Alpha Tolman cheese and a touch of smoke. Like the brats, this one has a slightly coarser grind to highlight the cheese, while remaining incredibly juicy. The sausages use natural casings for a satisfying snap with every bite. We rounded out the box with milled-to-order, tangy-sweet \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/store.177milkstreet.com\/products\/schwerter-senfmuhle-whole-grain-mustard\"\u003eWhole Grain Mustard from Schwerter Senfmühle \u003c\/a\u003e(one of Germany’s last old-school mustard mills) and Pitchfork Pickles Sepp’s Bavarian Sauerkraut, which delivers a crunchy, lightly fermented cabbage kraut seasoned with Bavarian juniper and dill.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Oktoberfest Box has a jar of mustard, Bavarian-style sauerkraut and 16 sausage links—or four Beer Bratwursts, four Käsewursts, four Bauernwursts and four Knackwursts. We have 75 total boxes available. Each box is packed by hand at 5th Quarter, so it goes straight from the butcher to your doorstep. This drop is only open for orders through midnight Sunday, September 20, or earlier if we sell out. Boxes start shipping on September 22 and customers should prepare for a September 24–25 delivery and refrigerate immediately upon receipt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNet Weight\/Volume: \u003c\/b\u003e6.5 pounds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eKnackwurst: \u003c\/b\u003ePork, Salt, White Pepper, Mace, Sodium Nitrite, Spices, Potato Starch, Natural Smoke \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eBauernwurst: \u003c\/b\u003e Pork, Beef, Salt, Pepper, Paprika, Caraway, Spices, Sodium Nitrite, Potato Starch, Natural Smoke\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBeer Bratwurst:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Pork, Lawson’s Finest Sip of Sunshine IPA (Contains Gluten), Salt, Garlic, Brown Sugar, White Pepper, Spices, Natural Pork Casing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKäsewurst:\u003c\/b\u003e Pork, Beef, Jasper Hill Farm Alpha Tolman (Cheese), Salt, Sugar, Garlic, Powered Milk, Spices, Sodium Nitrite, Natural Pork Casing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMustard:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cspan\u003eYellow and Brown Mustard Seeds, Wine Brandy Vinegar, Sea Salt, Water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSauerkraut:\u003c\/b\u003e Green Cabbage, Sea Salt, Dill, Juniper Berry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAllergens: \u003c\/b\u003eGluten and Dairy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlace of Origin: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWaitsfield, Vermont\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to Use: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe sausages are at their best when charred on the grill, but they’re also delicious pan-fried.

While living in Rome, founder Josh Turka first heard about “quinto quarto,” a term for off-cuts like tongue, tail and tripe. It literally means “fifth quarter” and comes from the way meat was distributed in ancient Rome: The first quarter of the animal (with all the best cuts) was reserved for the nobility, the second was for the church, the third went to the bourgeoisie and the fourth to the army. The poor and working classes were left with offal and scraps, which they jokingly called the “quinto quarto.” Today, 5th Quarter aims to bring high-quality, locally-sourced meat to the masses while using every part of the animal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduct SEO\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTitle: 5th Quarter Oktoberfest Box | Milk Street Store\u003cbr\u003eDescription: A curated Oktoberfest box containing one pound each of Knackwurst, Bauernwurst, IPA-infused Beer Bratwurst and Käsewurst, plus whole grain mustard and Bavarian sauerkraut.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"5th Quarter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46479143665721,"sku":"5QTOKT26","price":139.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0099\/5868\/6777\/files\/5th-quarter-x-milk-street-oktoberfest-box-fresh-dropship-5th-quarter-900815.jpg?v=1789057804","url":"https:\/\/store.177milkstreet.com\/products\/5th-quarter-x-milk-street-oktoberfest-box","provider":"Milk Street Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
