Legal drinking age for Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany?

Travel Info
I'm planning on going to Oktoberfest in Germany this year but i need to assure the drinking age. Anyone know the age requirement for certain?

Travel Tips
German law says that you can drink beer at age 16. At age 18 you can go to bars and drink the harder stuff if you so desire. It may vary from state to state.

Just for your information: Oktoberfest beer is no joke. You will get your beer in a 1 liter beer mug and the beer is STRONG. The beer is made specifically for Oktoberfest and has a high alcohol content. So don't start trying to pound them down or you will just be another tourist taken to the hospital with alcohol poisoning. It happens every year, sadly.
