Additional fun facts:

• Bier-Boot Party: The Bier-Boot Party involves a group of people (sometimes friends, sometimes later beloved strangers) sharing a glass boot-full of liquid goodness.
  The goal of the game is not to be the second to last person to drink, since that means you pick up the tab for the round…
• Oktoberfest History: Some might think Döner Bistro celebrates Oktoberfest too late, as in Munich the festival is celebrated at the end of September,
  but this is just due to better weather conditions around that time. The original Oktoberfest celebration came to life 202 years ago on the 17^th of October!!!
• More than 2,000 liters of Hofbräuhaus Oktoberfest Bier were consumed during last year’s Oktoberfest at Döner Bistro
  (this fact probably makes it one of the biggest Oktoberfests in the NOVA area;-)).
