Bier and Oktoberfest Museum

Tucked away near the Marienplatz is the Bier & Oktoberfest Museum.  There is actually a restaurant on the first floor, but we didn't get a chance to try it.  On the next few floors is the museum, which shows a history of how Oktoberfest came to be in Munich and how it has developed over the years, along with a history of how beer has evolved in Munich of the centuries.  A lot of the text in the museum is just German, but it's still something that is worth a visit when in Munich, especially if you go at a time outside the Oktoberfest festival.
