German officials warn Oktoberfest tent operators to stop skimping on the beer
German officials are reportedly warning Munich beer tent operators not to give skimpy pours to tourists and other drinkers attending the city’s world-class brew fest starting this weekend.
According to Germany’s Münchner Merkur newspaper, venues at last year’s Oktoberfest failed to fill steins of beer and served them with too much head. As a result, some drinkers who paid almost $14 for a beer lost as much as $3 of liquid per drink, city authorities said.

Good for the city to be looking out for the people paying full price for a full beer!!
Speaking of prices...I was at the Miami airport yesterday, two cokes and a candy bar...just under $10 bucks!! :blink:
And I'm not talking some high end candy bar either!!!!
