At your local Oktoberfest, do they serve the beer in the traditional 1 liter glasses or smaller sizes or both?

Please mention where this is, so I can compare different Oktoberfests.

In Cleveland OH both ways exist depending on the booth. Most of the booths will give the beer in a smaller size (often in a plastic cup), this is done because the backing company has traveled to be at the event. Other booths (those which have bars/restaurants they can set up in front of) will serve their beers in the 1 liter glasses.

We do also have a couple of booths that sell steins, and you can get discounted refills if you purchase one of them to use during the event....

It pays to have a large number of German/Dutch heritage in the area!!
Asker's Rating:
• I hope I get a chance to visit Cleveland some day. It seems I should during the Oktoberfest.

Both but traditionally the 1liters are offered the most. You can ask for smaller glasses though.

I added the location request (which I wrongly assumed people would know to include) as a clarification after this early answer. @staleyx can't be faulted, although I'd still like to know where this one is.

I shall remove my unhelpful vote as well in that case :)

In our country, Philippines, they just serve it either on plastic cups or beer cans or with just the typical beer bottle with live bands playing on the stage.

Q: At your local Oktoberfest, do they serve the beer in the traditional 1 liter glasses or smaller sizes or both?

A: Yes and No and maybe inbetween, because where I live the servings were advertised as traditional size, but it was served in pints, however the dominant local culture is a British derivative, so they might have *thought* they were being traditional.

Are they Imperial pints? Where is this?

Well, until I review the rules of Mahalo membership to know if it's kosher to broadcasting personal GPS, I'll just say it's a jurisdiction with legislation declaring that all beer must be sold in, yes, imperial pints.
