Oktoberfest: Beer & Blood is a 2020 German-Czech six-part miniseries directed by Hannu Salonen. Munich, 1900: When Curt Prank, a major brewer from Franconia, decides to expand for the Oktoberfest, the balance of power in the city begins to shake. As an “outsider”, Prank is not allowed to acquire a license at the Oktoberfest, let alone serve his Franconian beer. With bribery and extortion, Prank steals five adjacent lands at the Oktoberfest, which at that time could hold a maximum of 300 guests, in order to build a megalomaniac giant tent for six thousand guests. This is a presumptuous plan that pushes the small traditional Munich breweries like the Hoflinger family's Deibel Bräu to the edge of existence and triggers a brutal struggle for survival, at the end of which there will be victims on all sides.
The following weapons can be seen in the miniseries Oktoberfest: Beer & Blood:
