I just finished up my short, traditional opening weekend visit. Weather was pretty bad. Cold and rainy for most of the time.
I was expecting it to be much more "packed". Very little issue getting into tents when during other years it would have been tough. Not sure if a combination of the weather or lingering Covid concerns.
Met many great folks from around the globe, and sampled each of the brews on offer. Surprising, Hacker-Pschorr was a bit of a letdown this year, but can't put my finger quite on why. Just did not seems as "drinkable" as previous years. . Augustiner was a standout, as usual.
Now time to dry out a bit, and get back to the real world. Any one else visit yet? Your thoughts?
