Nearly time for Munich’s Beer Festival
There’s still time to think about going to this year’s Oktoberfest in Munich. Despite the name, don’t forget that it starts on 21st September. As every year, it will begin with the ‘tapping ceremony’ in the Schottenhamel festival hall at 12.00 noon. The mayor himself will tap the first beer barrel and cry ‘O’zapft is!’, to tell everyone the beer is now flowing. Find out more in our Munich episode ‘World Capital of Beer’.
