If you're in the mood for a drink and the Krämerbrücke has left you disappointed, don't fret! Head on over to the supermarkets dotted around Anger and Domplatz. There, you'll find beer for a pittance, typically around 1€ to 3€ per half-liter bottle. Grilled sausages, the festival favorite, are available for around 3.50€, while even 4.50€ isn't unheard of. Unlikely to find anything under 3€.
Oh, for the nostalgia of good old haggling! I can almost hear myself saying, "Can I have a glass of that hop-fresh brew for just 4€?" With a quizzical look, the vendor might ask, "Why?" To which, I would reply, "Because I'm dying of thirst!" That should be a powerful argument, no?
