beer tent

Oktoberfest drinking shelter

A beer tent is a large temporary tent set up at festivals, fairs, or outdoor events where beer is sold and consumed.

The term evokes German Oktoberfest celebrations, where massive tents accommodate thousands of drinkers at long communal tables: We spent the afternoon in the beer tent listening to polka music.
