Bimringham's Frankfurt Christmas Market have introduced a new beer rule to try and stop underage drinking, leaving many punters furious

Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Market has been a fixture of the city’s festive period since 2001 Those looking to enjoy an evening at the UK’s biggest Christmas market need to mentally prepare for paying at least £20 for a beer and hotdog. Visitors to Birmingham’s German Christmas market were more than frustrated when they were charged £21 for their food and drink, which claims to be authentic. A two-pint stein of Hofbrau German wheat beer set punters back by £12.

The signs read: ‘One drink per person. We ask for your understanding that we are only allowed to sell one alcoholic drink per person. ‘This is part of a campaign to ensure that alcoholic drinks are not being bought for market visitors who are underage.’ Market organisers said they will be advising that anyone who looks under the age of 25 should have to provide ID to buy one of their famous German beers.
