Paulaner Oktoberfest
After outstaying our welcome in the Weiss tent, (ok, when the folks who had reserved the table we had claimed arrived) we headed outside for a feed. Being simple folks we chose to refuel on Currywurst, one of my favourite traditional German dishes. For those who are unfamiliar with this delicacy, its basically two bratwurst sausages covered with tomato sauce and curry powder. We were lucky this time and scored a free side of frittes (potato chips) on the side. Then it was time to try our luck in the Paulaner tent! A quick wander through quickly revealed that we had no chance of scoring onto a table, so we pleb'ed it in the beer garden for a while. The Paulaner Oktoberfestbier (6.0% abv) this year is better than it has been for a while, and was probably the best beer of the 'fest. Rich and malty with a noticeable hallateur hop kick it went down all too easy and went to our heads quite fast! After two steins we decided to move on, in search of more amber goodness.

Ah the delights of the Berliner appraoch to currywurst! Love that stuff. When I was in Dresden a couple of years back the currywurst was more of a bratwurst made with curried meat - still awesome though!
