Names of Beers served at Oktoberfest

What is the names of all the beers served at Oktoberfest ?






Reply by Marion

There are only a few big breweries that brew beer for the Oktoberfest. All the tents use one of these seven brands:

- Spaten
- Franziskaner
- Paulaner
- Hofbräu
- Hacker-Pschorr
- Löwenbräu
- Augustiner

Actually the beer for Oktoberfest is especially brewed for this occasion and will taste slightly different than the "normal" beer of that brand.

2010 an additional special beer is served
by: Anonymous

2010 is the 200 year anniversary of Oktoberfest and there is a special area called the "Historical Wiesn", featuring some historical events (i.e. a horse race). Other than the regular festival area, it costs entry fee (4 EUR per person) but is worth to see. A lot calmer and very appropriate for families with children (young kids are free).

And: they have a special beer! To come close to the original beer served 200 years ago, all of the Munich breweries came together to brew several thousand liters of a special receipt. They will never have it again, since they agreed to burn the recipe...

It is a strong dark beer, very tasty. And, again, it's unique.
