History of German Oktoberfest & Views of Heiner Brau's Oktoberfest 2008

 

 

From WIKIPEDIA - Oktoberfest is a two-week festival held each year in Munich, Germany, during late September and ealy October.  It is one of the most famous events in the city and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The event traditionally takes place during the 16 days up to and including the first Sunday in October. The schedule was changed following in 1990 so that if the first Sunday in October falls on the 1st or 2nd, then the festival will go on until (). Thus, the festival is now 17 days when the 1st Sunday is and 18 days when it is.

The festival is held on an area named the Theresienwiese (Field [or meadow] of Therese), often called "d’ Wiesn" for short. Beer plays a central role in the fair, with every festival beginning with a keg of beer tapped by the Mayor of Munich who declares "O'zapft is!" (Bavarian: "It’s tapped!").

       

A special Oktoberfest beer is brewed for the occasion, which is slightly darker and stronger, in both taste and alcohol. It is served in a one-liter-tankard called Maß. The first mass is served to the Bavarian Minister-President. Only local Munich breweries are allowed to serve this beer in a Bierzelt, a beer tent which is large enough for thousands. Note: the words 'stein' and 'lager' do not mean what many English speakers think they do so instead use 'Mass' or 'Helles' respectively.

 

Visitors also consume large quantities of food, most of it traditional hearty fare such as sausage, hendl (chicken), käsespätzle (cheese noodles), and sauerkraut, along with such

Bavarian delicacies as roast ox tails.  Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the Munich event.
