Oktoberfest is a 16–18 day beer festival held annually in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, running from late September to the first weekend in October.
Only beer which is brewed within the city limits of Munich is allowed to be served in this festival. Upon passing this criterion, a beer is designated Oktoberfest Beer. Oktoberfest Beer is a registered Trademark by the Club of Munich Brewers.
Well..I attended an 'Oktoberfest' in Singapore yesterday with 2 friends..
One of my main disappointment is that the beer comes in wussy plastic cups of suppossedly 330 & 500ml capacity instead of the Maß (a 1 liter mug) at the actual Oktoberfest..
My opinion that beer served in plastic cups is such a turn-off and rob this particular Oktoberfest of its festive spirits. I see it as another excuse to get it's patrons drunk..Luckily, none of my friends end up as "Bierleichen" (Beer Corpses).
Don't you think that it really feels different drinking beer from a proper mug as compared to a plastic cup? Look at the picture below..it's supposed to be that kind of mugs.
I did not touch a single drop of beer at all yesterday.
