Overall Löwenbräu-Festhalle Decor & Vibe
The aggressively named “Lion’s Brew” boasts a tent that is equally aggressive, complete with a lion that will randomly roar every few minutes and scare the schnapps out of you.
This tent is a lot of fun though, with a fun party vibe in the evenings and a fairly international crowd thanks to Löwenbräu’s global brand recognition.
They also play a lot of international music, and have really fun staff (from the few times I’ve been in here).
Most heartwarming was when I shared a table with an old Bavarian man who after a few hours informed us the server was actually his sister, while the young server on our other side was (plot twist) the other server’s DAUGHTER. Lots of in-tent nepotism. I love it.
