Life hack from a german here (I live about an hour away from munich) : Don't go to Oktoberfest. You can get the same beers or at least beers in a similar style for a fraction of the price in regular supermarkets. Oktoberfest or Wiesn is a big tourist trap and a bit of a scam. Try to get to some small village "Pfarrfest" (or maybe some "Volksfest" for the Funfair stuff) or similar events if you really want the Blasmusik and all that stuff. Oh and also here's a little linguistic help: We germans don't really have silent letters. If there's a P the P will be pronounced. So it really is Pschorr (Pshor) not "Shore". "Gemütlichkeit" can also be translated to "Cozyness" or "chill vibes" (as in chill out) kinda.

@@TheCraftBeerChannel it feels like such a dick move to correct the video, so I'm sorry my German-ness came out like this. Also a quick bit of info, the Paulaner brewery moved a few years back for a few reasons, they wanted to expand and the well they dug downtown dried up. They moved out to Langwied and every Münchener swears that the taste changed, which some like and of course many hate. So I'm glad you guys like it since I always felt they got judged unfairly since the move. Another bit of info is that there is a push to add some tents, rather than have 20 of the same carnival game, people think adding 2 more tents would be nice. The beers for those tents are pushing from 4 breweries, Giesing, Tegernsee, Erding, and Chiemsee. There are a few others like Andechs from your Weißbier video. Giesing is a newer brewery that is located downtown, so they fit the criteria and people wonder why they haven't been allowed yet. Tegernsee is a very popular helles and many think it's the best, so they argue it should be at the Wiesn even though it is very outside of München. Erding is a funny story, because they were excluded from the Wiesn, because they are on the outskirts of town, so they always went to the other oktoberfests in spite. Now, Paulaner is just as far out of town as Erding, so everyone is wondering what the excuse could be to still exclude them. Chiemsee is just another really great helles that people think should be allowed to participate, since the king did plop an unfinished palace right in the middle of their lake. So yeah, so fun Wiesn info/drama

@@TheCraftBeerChannel The biggest challenge, they are facing right now, is their output. At the moment of writing, they have an output of about 30000 hectolitres per year. They are trying to reach up to 45000 in the near future. But to play with the big boys at Oktoberfest, they need to have an out of 7000 for 14 days. Yes days ... So a big way ahead for them. But I am very happy that you already know about Giesinger. It is even hard for locals, to get that kind of beer. Maybe you are lucky and will try it in the near future. Prost!

If I had to bet, I would bet that ALL of them are good because Marzen is a good recipe and because they're all German. Can hardly go wrong with German (or Czech) beer.

A Mass is a unit for the volume and measures 1 Liter. A Mass-Krug (jug) can be made of glass and stein. On the Oktoberfest the glass ones just more popular.

Schneider had a Oktoberfest Weiße this year, classical Schneider wheat beer with cascade hops. You should try that one! Also thanks for the video, I learned how to properly pour from a Bügelflasche!
