At an after-Oktoberfest party in a Munich bar, guests ordered 150 bottles of champagne. In tubs and with sparklers, the bottles were brought to the table.
Munich – Oktoberfest visitors are known to drink a lot – and accordingly pay a lot for alcohol consumption. This year alone, 6.5 million litres of beer were served – even rather low compared to previous years. But every evening the bar closes at 22.30 p.m. in the Oktoberfest tents, and the drunken guests are simply asked outside. This is too early for many party-goers: In Munich's clubs and bars, the party can continue at after-Oktoberfest parties.
In the 089 Bar near the Stachus, the party starts at 21 p.m. during the Oktoberfest. On the social network TikTok, the bar posted a video with a special luxury order. It shows numerous employees carrying alcohol bottles through the room seemingly endlessly. Some of the bottles are brought in small tubs, often decorated with burning sparklers. The waitresses are surrounded by guests watching, filming and cheering the champagne procession.
"Can I participate?" – Users would probably have liked to be in the Munich bar that evening
Guests of the 089 Bar had ordered 150 bottles of champagne. The bar captioned the video with "150 bottles of Champagne – Be the next one". The users in the comments celebrate the video. One writes: "Can I participate?", another: "That's where I see myself". In addition, one commented: "Normal Wednesday in Munich". Or also: "If I win the lottery, I won't tell anyone, but there will be signs haha".

But not everyone likes the video about the luxury order. One commented: "Loser" and one user writes to a friend: "The main thing is that we got it". Another user writes: "Too expensive and, above all, too crowded". Not everyone seems to buy the fact that the bottles were actually all bought: "80 were sold", or: "After the video, they brought all the bottles back".
Three 50-bottle champagne trains for 15,000 euros in Munich bar
How deep the guests had to dig into their pockets for the 150 bottles of champagne cannot be verified. The 089 Bar offers a "Champagne Train" on the drinks menu. Guests can order ten, 25 or 50 bottles of Belle Voyage Lumi champagne for 1,250, 2,700 or 5,000 euros. "Would you like a little more?" – then the bar also offers a "Dom Pérignon Train", with either ten or 20 bottles. 20 bottles of rosé cost 14,500 euros.
Three times the 50cc champagne train of the Belle Voyage Lumi brand would have cost the guests 15,000 euros. Whether the bar offers a discount for this large amount remains open in the menu. Rarely do guests seem to buy so many bottles of champagne at once.
This is not the first frighteningly costly order in the course of the Oktoberfest: marquee visitors spent more than 900 euros in one evening.
