Beerfest
Bring on the beer. They've got the nuts.
When American brothers Todd and Jan Wolfhouse travel to Germany to spread their grandfather’s ashes at Oktoberfest, they stumble upon a super-secret, centuries old, underground beer games competition—“Beerfest,” the secret Olympics of beer drinking.
The brothers receive a less than warm welcome from their German cousins, the Von Wolfhausens, who humiliate Todd and Jan, slander their relatives, and finally cast them out of the event. Vowing to return in a year to defend their country and their family’s honor, The Wolfhouse boys assemble a ragtag dream team of beer drinkers and gamers: Barry Badrinath, the consummate skills player with a dark past; Phil Krundle (a.k.a. Landfill), a one-man chugging machine; and Steve "Fink" Finklestein, the lab tech with a PhD in All Things Beer.
This Magnificent Five train relentlessly, using their hearts, minds and livers to drink faster, smarter and harder than they ever have before. But first they must battle their own demons... as well as a bunch of big, blond, German jerks who want to destroy the team before they can even make it back to Munich.
Revenge, like beer, is best served cold.

This movie was really funny and could give you a quick laugh to boost up your moody days. I've watched a couple of times already and discovered more funny part each time.
They talked about PotFest at the end and I was waiting for it to come out.... I found out it wasn't going to be made. Too bad.Beer run anyone? - Rookzip
After watching this movie, I had a craving for an ice cold beer, but I'd probably stay away from drinking it out of "Das Boot".
Well, here's what this movie provided me with: a few laughs, a view on the history of beer and a behind-the-scene look at the world of beer games. Overall it was pretty entertaining, but don't expect to be mentally stimulated (except if you try to figure out what is the goal behind trying to drink yourself blind week after week).
Anyway, if you're into frat boy humour; sit back, put your feet up and enjoy the ride.Funny Stupid - FilmJunkie
Broken Lizard has a certain style about them to be sure. A bunch of dudes doing ridiculous things to try and see breasts while improving their friendships.
This movie is much better than 'Club Dread', their last venture, but it does not quite live up to their masterpiece 'Super Troopers'.
This movie is about two brothers who go to Germany to fulfill the final wishes of their dead grandfather (Donald Sutherland) and soon discover their long lost cousins and the underground version of Oktoberfest: Beerfest.
They gather their friends and train to try and win the greatest beer championship in the world.
The movie is full of drinking, so much fucking drinking, and a lot of funny dude humour. The Beerfest competition itself is awesomely creative and the work by Will Forte and Eric Christian Olsen as two of the German team is classic.
A funny stupid movie better than most in that category.
