Yes, I was there a few hours ago. I must admit I was a bit disappointed. If I could, I would have done as Rambuster did, but instead I headed over to the SEN lounge.
It is basically just a small section in the middle of the business lounge with new tables and benches, and today at least, a young couple dressed in traditional attire who served the few patrons who did not prefer the other parts of the lounge.

We (6 SEN/HON FT/VFTers) invaded the place on thursday to take a look what the buzz was all about. What a disappointment. The new look refurb of the FTL / C lounge was nice, but the 'beergarden' element a joke. They just stuck some Alp scenery posters (in the line of 'sound of music) below the skylight and put chic benches below it. All sponsored by a bavarian brewery. Probably owned by the Warsteiner holding company

And the benches, while looking pretty, are going to be a mess when the place is crowded, as you have nowhere to put bags, and sitting down / getting up without annoying your neighbors is a bit of a challenge. So people will put bags next to themselves on the benches, and then three people can sit down on each. Stupid.
I was seriously expecting the standard issue orange surface / green leg benches and tables they have in normal beergardens and at the Oktoberfest, but that would arguably look a bit out of place
