Here is a brief summary of what the German tradition of Frühschoppen is about:
Frühschoppen (meaning: an alcoholic drink before midday in company) is the German tradition of meeting up at a pub, inn, or tavern in the late morning, usually on Sundays. The specific customs vary from region to region. It is often a kind of brunch, but does not necessarily involve food. Frühschoppen is also often held at fun fairs, the most famous being Oktoberfest or Cannstatter Volksfest.
Frühschoppen is understood more generally to be a gathering in a pub on Sunday morning, traditionally held after church service. This usually includes the consumption of alcoholic beverages, but not necessarily that of a meal.
