Same as the volume of a beer glass filled with beer, or an empty beer glass. The content of the glass doesn't affect its volume.

So you saying there is no way to drink the beer and eat the wurst?

I fear the wurst if you try.

(This is almost certainly a Leslie.)
A lesson: A professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty glass mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a jar of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open spaces between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar and of course the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous yes.
The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and then proceeded to pour the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the grains of sand. The students laughed.
"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things -- your family, your partner, your health, your children, your friends, your favorite passions -- things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
"The pebbles are the other things that matter, like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.
"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for your life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out dancing. Play another 18.
"There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers."

Hmmm. Not sure about that.
Wurst are solids, with a specific set of dimensions, where beer is a liquid, that fills its container until it overflows. The overflow can't be considered part of the volume of the glass.
So either there is a gap around each wurst (assuming the wurst are not the same size and shape as the glass interior) so the volume is not completely full, or the wurst are shorter / taller than the glass and either extend above the glass or do not fill the whole interior volume.
So the volume of wurst teh glass contains could easily be more or less than the volume of beer it contains. Send the glass, the beer, and the wurst to me, and I'll investigate further.

But the question wasn't about the volume of the wurst; it was about the volume of the glass.

Actually - although it isn't explicitly said - I think that the question is about the volume of the space created inside the surrounding glass that holds the beer and brats (when held upright). The volume of the glass itself is irrelevant!
(approaching max pedantry!)

They have had the Oktoberfest stuff for the last three days.
If you want, I can go and take a look at those two stands for you. It's just a walk of about 45 minutes, faster if I take the subway.

45 minutes on car for me. A bit longer if I use P+R
But to be honest... I think I won't visit the "Wiesn" again, if there is not a really good reason

The good news for me is that the town of Wieze in Belgium reintroduced the "Oktoberfeesten"
Wieze Oktoberfeesten 2018[^]
Saves me quite a distance to travel (if I ever would go haha).

Don't know about that but my volume would be very high if I spot wurst in my beer mug.

Are we thinking wurst smoothie ever?
|
|
|
|

well seing as they are talking about people, not beer glasses
then both can go:
- eat (or snort if that's your thing) the wurst
- take the beer intravenously (though the bubbles may hurt.... perhaps whiskey is a wiser choice.)
done!
