General Plans

Let's start the discussion (for lack of anything better to do today), about our daily plans for this year.

  • Friday
    • As always, off to the Hofbrauhaus.  No better way to get things moving, have our "first" bier, and meet the new Oktoberfestians.  Late night at either Augustiner Keller, Shakespeare's or even the Wies'n.
  • Saturday
    • I believe Kloster Andechs is in order.  We didn't make it last time, and I felt as if I was in pergatory the entire past two years.  We need the religious experience to pay homage to the gods and monks for the glorious elixir.
    • An attempt in the evening at Lowenbrau, Pschorr Bräurosl or Paulaner; or maybe the wine tent.
  • Sunday
    • Late morning through the afternoon at Augustiner Feste Halle
  • Monday
    • Name your poison.  A early trip to the Wies'n?  Another day trip to Weihenstephan?  Englischer Garten?  Viktualienmark?  So many places, so much bier, so little time.
Let the countdown continue.....

Plan sounds good to me. Do we have a line on reservations for Sunday? Monday can be left open, but I wouldnt mind going to Weihenstephan as I havent been there. And we could hit some beer halls in munich.

Augustiner Feste Halle are the reservations.

Just out of curiosity, did you guys get any reservations to any of the bier tents? We decided not to just to keep options open or closed depending on how packed they get..

Nothing guaranteed yet, but hoping for something on Sunday.

Reservations are a good guarantee that you get into a tent, especially on the weekend. I personally don't like the seating as it is usually to the side of the tent, and not in the middle where all the action is.
