oktoberfest



beer stein endurance contest

A challenging and fun event that tests both strength and endurance. This well-known and competitive Bavarian strength contest sounds much easier than it actually is.

The goal is simple, hold a full stein at shoulder height, parallel with the ground as long as possible. If the contestant waivers (or spills), they are eliminated.

How long could you last?
