I mean, that seems fair. It's a beer event. Like really a beer event. You can come and go as you please, so just go for a walk if you want to blaze.

Weinzelt - translates as "wine tent". This tent offers a selection of more than 15 wines, as well as Weißbier.

They're doing it wrong!

Oktoberfest is also home to the "magic chicken" as we called it. Super salty so went with beer well but had magic hangover fighting abilities.

That's just not true.
It started as a celebration of the wedding of the crown prince and has since become a generic festival.
They serve food, snacks, wine, nonalcoholic drinks and have rides for children who are not allowed to drink beer.

If that is true, how do you explain Hofbräu being served there? That is clearly not beer.
