The opening night witnessed the ceremonial tapping of this year's Golden-fest beer keg, from which flowed a golden liquid imbued with the aroma of wheat, greeted by a chorus of Prost! and the cheers of an enthralled crowd. A grand celebration began to unfold, featuring an unlimited supply of ice-cold beer, crispy pork knuckles, an assortment of homemade German sausages, and the classic Black Forest cakes.

The climax of the night was a group activity that brought together beer enthusiasts, connoisseurs of delectable meats, and avid partygoers to revel in the autumn festivities.
