Oktoberfest Awaits
The Bier Haus slot was released in 2015 by WMS gaming. It’s one of the oldest standing companies and was previously known as Williams Manufacturing company before they rebranded. This slot celebrates the world’s largest beers celebration which attracts over 6 million visitors during the festival. And this slot definitely does this popular festival justice. You’ll feel like you’re really in Germany celebrating with lots of beer with the great 3G graphics, animations and sound effects.
This video slot captures the fun and entertainment of Oktoberfest beautifully. There will be upbeat soundtracks playing throughout the gameplay, hopefully, to accompany some big wins. Lots of beers, lots of beautiful people and lots of dancing. It’s guaranteed you’ll enjoy yourself whilst playing this slot. And the incredibly wide range of bonuses and promotions on offer will get your adrenaline pumping.
Features
Bier Haus features 4 rows, 5 reels and 40 fixed paylines. It has an above-average of 96.28% so you’ll hopefully be rewarded with small wins fairly regularly. You can join the celebration for a minimum bet of $0.40 and a maximum bet of $40 so this game is suitable for low rollers. Who rather play for entertainment and small wins. You will have the opportunity to win up to 1,000x your inital stake. So there’s $40,000 up for grabs if you’re lucky.
Bonus features/ jackpots
Bier Haus only has two bonus features, but these features are what you need to get close or win the jackpot.
The beer meister will be your highest-paying symbol during the game. If you find either 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols on any payline you can activate either 2x, 5x or 25x your inital stake.
The beer steins symbol will be your wild during this game. If you find it on the reels it will substitute for all other symbols (apart from the bonus ones) and make room for more winning combinations. It almost pays equally to the beer meister symbol.
You will activate the free spins feature by finding 5 or more gold feature symbols on your reels. For every gold feature symbol you find, you will activate one free spin round (only if it’s more than 5 though). So if you find 8 gold feature symbols, you will receive 8 free spins. If you keep finding gold feature symbols on your reels during the free spins, you will keep triggering more. And you can win up to an incredible 80 free spins. So that’s 80 free chances to finding winning combinations. Sounds good, right?

Conclusion
It’s no surprise that with a celebratory theme like Ockotoberfest that this slot is vibrant, fun and entertaining. This slot features rather basic and straightforward gameplay so it’s probably not appealing for experienced players. The graphics and animations are more dated than most WMS but still very enjoyable. It also only offers two bonus features so the game isn’t very dynamic. But despite this, it’s still one of WMS most popular slot games. So it’s definitely worth checking out what all the fuss is about!
