    Lets get this straight, its not Oktoberfest unless its in Munich. You simply can't stick up some tents and call it Oktoberfest.

    These happen all over the world. A few merchants get together, put a tent up and charge extra for crappy beer and call it "Oktoberfest".

    Is it free in? If so might be worth a visit.

    That's right all the Germans out in Spain have their own Oktoberfests, is it a proper German holiday?

    Thats crazy money. The food and beer is worth about €10 at the most, even at Irish prices. How can they justify this ?


    ½ Litre of Paulaner per person !!!! :eek: They better watch they don't get drunk :rolleyes:
