The Tourist Oktoberfest in Munich is good to experience once, but I have no intention to ever go again. Queueing in the hope you can get into a tent, asshole bouncers, and massive crowds took the shine off a bit. You get a table and never leave until you're kicked out. The cost of the beer doesn't include the massive tips you're expected to give the beer women either (which they deserve) The lack of a hangover after copious amounts of beer was quite a nice surprise though.

> The lack of a hangover after copious amounts of beer was quite a nice surprise though. That's because it's actual, high quality beer that's been brewed right in Munich - in fact, being brewed inside Munich city borders is a requirement to be allowed on the Oktoberfest, and there are only a handful of qualifying beer breweries in the first place [1]. For those wishing to go: keep in mind that the beer served on Oktoberfest is an even stronger variety than regular beer which is in itself way stronger than what is called beer in other places of this world. And for heavens sake don't forget to eat beforehand and during a tent visit.
