Given it’s a tourist attraction those don’t seem like very high prices to me. As a couple of the pictures show, your liter contains a lot of foam. It must be drunk anyway - it’s deadly carbon dioxide that’s killing the (hic!) planet. Drink it for Muvver Erf! I meant to fall off that bar stool...

I had a blast at Oktoberfest in Munich in 2010. Yes everything is expensive but it’s likely a one time experience. Just have a good time!

Euros and dollars are close enough these days that if you have to sweat the difference, you probably can’t afford the trip anyway. A Euro is a little over a dollar and a nickle this weekend. A year ago, it was a little less than a dollar to buy one.

Pounds cost about a dollar and a quarter these days. I remember when they were more that twice as expensive. But that’s before the Brits decimalized their currency.

No beer for me, please.

I'll just have some milk.

One liter for €13.30 converts to about $7 per US (16 oz.) pint. Pretty standard for a real beer.
