The royal edict in 1812 brought an end to the argument between the breweries and innkeepers. The edict stated, that the breweries are allowed to sell their Märzenbier from June to September for straight consumption on location. To bring some guests back to the restaurants, the breweries were only allowed to sell beer and bread, but nothing else. Nevertheless, the beer garden guests started to bring their own food from home and over time this custom turned into tradition.
''Throughout the 2012 beer garden season, many Munich beer gardens will celebrate this tradition together with their guests in combination with special events, as for instance on the 22nd July in the [[Hirschgarten|Königliche Hirschgarten]] with parade, music, dance, Schuhplattler dance and female whip crackers.''<br clear="all">
