Hello,

I’ve added another dataset to the whatson gem [1] that lets you list
upcoming beer festivals from around the world. Ever wonder how many
days to the next Oktoberfest? Just type in your shell:

$ beerfest

The command will fetch the event calendar page (from the intertubes)
[2] and print out:

in 9d Ottakringer Braukultur Wochen, Thu-Wed Jul/2-Sep/2 (63d) @
16., Ottakring › Vienna › Austria
in 88d Oktoberfest ("Die Wiesn"), Sat-Sun Sep/19-Oct/4 (16d) @
Munich › Upper Bavaria
...

and so on. Cheers. Prost. Kampai.
