Glasses raised as beer event opens [Oktoberfest]

The Mayor of Munich has opened the 176th Oktoberfest beer festival with the traditional cry of "It's tapped!"

It took the mayor, Christian Ude, just two swift strokes to pound a spigot into the first massive keg of beer.

Following festival protocol, he handed the first litre mug, called a "Mass", to Bavarian Governor Horst Seehofer.
