Starkbierfest Munich Strong Beer Festival

Starkbierfest 2020 Munich Strong Beer Festival

To appreciate the Munich love of beer you just have to consider what locals call the “fifth season”. It’s the Starkbierzeit (Strong Beer Time), a three-week frenzy of early-spring stout swigging.

Beer halls and breweries host their own Starkbierfests across the city.
It’s a fabulous event where you have the supreme privilege of downing fresh, delicious brew that tastes like it was especially concocted just for you to drink on that specific day.

Munich is always brewing up some kind of excuse to get buzzed.
Sandwiched between Carnival celebrations and Easter, Starkbierfest is Munich’s Lent-time justification for alcohol consumption. The festival is celebrated over a few weeks during early Spring

The Munich Leather and Fetish association, MLC host a special 4 day weekend version of their very own Starkbierfest each March.
