Very impressive. I went to Oktoberfest as a teen, but avoided the beer tents because they were far too raucous and I wanted to go on the rides anyway. The day before, I had been to the Hofbrauhaus, which is a permanent beer hall in the city center, and the servers there were only carrying about 4 of these at a time. The mugs were really thick glass and all chipped and worn. An empty mug weighed like a pound or two. My parents let me drink beer in Germany at 16 years old, and one of those 1 liter mugs really got me buzzed. They hold around 3 US bottles.
