At Oktoberfest, people will squeeze into any seats they can, and are not bothered by who they are sitting next to. They may not even be sitting by family! American beer varies greatly from German beer. The alcohol content in German beer is significantly higher than American beer. The German alcohol content ranges from 4.7% to 16%, while the American beer content ranges from 3.6% to 3.8%. Food from Germany to America varies, also. The common German foods include pretzel, sausages, and strudels. In America, common foods hot dogs, hamburgers, and desserts. Folk music is a huge part of Oktoberfest, while the music in America ranges from Rock to Country to Hip-Hop. Lastly, attire varies between Germany and America. In Germany, women in Oktoberfest can be seen wearing a bodice, blouse, and full skirt. Men at Oktoberfest wear Lederhosen, a flap, and suspenders. The clothing the German people wear at Oktoberfest is unlike anything the typical American can be seen
