Loved the review. Was at Oktoberfest this year (2022) and drank in the Spaten and the Lowenbrau tents. Seating at a premium, so we stayed put. Fair reviews. I loved the Hofbrauhaus in Munich centre and also drank in the Augustiner Stammhaus round the corner. My advice to everyone since I've come back.....GO! It is incredible, make sure you make the trip!

[@j54island]

Just to help you out. I am john with the Thirsty Historian in Munich. a couple of facts for you. You have to brewer with in the city limits and your well has to draw water from within the city. The reason other breweries are not YET allowed to serve at Oktoberfest is becausse they need to make enough for the Wiesn and for local consumption. Hacker Pschorr and Thomas Brau were all together. They also have the Pschorr Bräurosl. 10,600 seats in the Paulaner Winzrer Fähndl.

[@simonlawler7345]

Well done guys. 25 years since I went to Oktoberfest, and you sang that Hofbrau song and I was like "I KNOW THAT". Haven't heard it for 25 years, yet recognised it instantly and raised a big smile. Admittedly it is played a LOT so maybe my memory had been desperately trying to erase it for all that time 😄

[@spearsba]

I was oktoberfest last Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday hit the outdoor Biergartens. But on Sunday evening we had two tables in Paulaner. Such a great time. I believe Paulaner has the largest tent at 10,000, plus 3,000 outside.

[@cehaem2]

Oktoberfest is horrible. Drunks, antisocial behaviour, noisy and super commercial. I always recommend going to the Oide Wiesn. It's pretty much in the same spot, smaller, more original and with the same beer lineup.

[@tenchman4526]

Really enjoyed the lesson again. I hadn’t appreciated that there were only 6 true Oktoberfest beers (none of which I have any chance of buying where I live!). I was all set for an antipodean Oktoberfest at the Rose and Crown in Townsville on Sunday but I finally got covid and have had to postpone it until later in the month. A fridge full of German beers and a special all grain pilsner that took 3 months to brew and mature properly - it wont be wasted, just late…

I did them all the other day, I thought they were all in the same ballpark but I enjoyed the Hofbrau the most, I think it's a person preference thing. Like you say the Lowenbrau is an outlier, definitely the one you bang in the middle to freshen things up.

[@fabianh5811]

Oh Yes. Angels. I dont't know if thats only a german thing or if thats why they play it at the Oktoberfest, but Angels is what we call a "Rausschmeisser" which roughly translates to someone or something that kicks you out. Angels is often played as last song of an act or the evening to suggest to the audience it's time to leave now :)

[@alexanderbryant7666]

couple things, as your designated Bavarian viewer. Theresienwiese is the place, so her name in English was Theresa, German Therese, and the other part is wiese, pronounced veezuh. Robbie Williams is usually, and should only be played at the end as a closing song. Besides that West Virginia, Sweet home Alabama, I will survive, and das Fliegerlied are the typical daily songs. The Oida Wiesn has more traditional songs Local word for Oktoberfest is Wiesn, pronounced veezen. Love the vids man!

[@TheCraftBeerChannel]

Thanks for the corrections!

[@alexanderbryant7666]

@@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

[@jonnyedge7094]

I’d love to see Tegernsee make it, but Giesinger also deserves its spot especially as the Helles is so good!

[@jonasn6784]

Giesinger is also a brewery, which now has a own well in Munich as well I think. (Need to double check, if that's entirely true though) Therefore technically they are allowed to brew a Oktoberfestbier and have one of those famous tents on Theresienwiese as well. Although they did not take this privilege this year - but maybe we have seven Oktoberfestbeers next year.

[@garethkava]

Giesinger Bräu now has a Munich water source, I think the only thing stopping them is finding a Wirt (the people who own and run the tents) to serve their beer at the Wiesn (that's the local name for the Oktoberfest)

[@TheCraftBeerChannel]

Indeed - I read that. Need to try the beer as I hear it's great!

[@lars5174]

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.

[@lars5174]

....sorry for spamming but the "äu" "Bräu" is kinda like a londoner saying "Oi". It's not "ow".

[@TheCraftBeerChannel]

Totally understand that it's a tourist trap, but how is it a scam? I know locals think it is overpriced, but by the pint it is still less than half the price of a UK pint....

[@lars5174]

@@TheCraftBeerChannel Well yeah ok compared to UK prices it might be ok but man even the food is insanely expensive and not even that great. This year the Liter was 13 Euros. You can get a whole case of real high quality beers for that here. Also some of the Steins aren't even filled up. It's just a lot of foam you're paying for if the server isn't doing it right.

[@jakobbrecheisen7314]

Great video! I was at the Hacker-Pschorr tent this year, and I would note that they don't serve the Marzen you had in the tent itself. The festbier they had was fantastic, but unfortunately there is no way to find the festbier in the US as far as I can tell. I can't say for the UK, but it definitely seems like they widely distribute the marzen instead of the festbier.

[@TheCraftBeerChannel]

Yes this is something that occurred to me in the edit. They must bottle the marzen and keep the festbier on keg.

[@privatevendetta]

Slight correction (as we Germans like to do): Hacker-Pschorr has two tents. It is a leftover from the time when they were seperated.

Great film lads, probably not your most professional offering but entertaining all the same. Highlight was Brad's response to Spaten inventing the fridge. 😆 Ordered all of those beers a couple weeks ago, apart from the Augustiner, as you say it's difficult to get hold of, although the company I ordered from got some in the day my box arrived ! 😠 I think the Paulaner one cost £3.20 which was reasonable but then I went in my local Aldi and they were selling it at £1.85 ! I bought 10. Would agree I was disappointed in the Hofbrau offering myself, much prefer their normal offering.

[@TheAndlix]

If, inexplicably, you don't like Robby Williams, then it's good to know that Ed Sheeran is also being played. 😉 In the past, more Bavarian and Austrian pop music was played, but is being pushed out more and more (e.g. Spider Murphy Gang, a Munich cult band). This year, for the first time, Giesinger brewed a Munich festival beer. They now have their own well and serve almost every requirement for the Oktoberfest. But this year it hasn't worked out yet for a own tent. By the way, it's "Oans, zwoa, gsuffa"

Let me draw your attention to Giesinger Bräu. It is the latest brewery in Munich, that now also has it's own water supply. That is within the ruleset, to be called a "Original Müncher Hell" (original lager from Munich). So technically it also, would be able to sell their beer at Oktoberfest. But as we all know tradition is nothing that is changed quickly and this brewery is a hobby project that somewhere started in 2005 and culminated in a complete new brewery within the city border of Munich.

That is the brewery we were referencing in the video. It would be amazing to have a new brewery at Oktoberfest one day!
