"Tell me where you drink, and I'll tell you who you are!" That could be the motto of this Oktoberfest book. Lovingly described and peppered with numerous anecdotes, Munich insider Christian Rupprecht-Essig takes his readers along to the world's largest folk festival. Who gets into the Käfer tent and who sits in the Bräurosl? Where can you find Australians and where the wealthy elite? Where does everyone want to be, and where should no one get lost? Numerous conversations with Oktoberfest landlords, security personnel, and waitresses round out this book and create an unparalleled guide—along the secret paths and unwritten rules of the Theresienwiese.
