Had a girlfriend who used to dress up like that. Should have held on to that one.
There is no beer but pilsner.
Seems the Germans planted their beer seeds in Mexico, too. Also polka music...
That’s funny, because basically all of our major brands are from Germans.
I’m a bit biased, but all my life it seems if anything, beer was a German thing. Little associated with any other people.
Imported is very different from that sold in Germany. No real beer, stout, ale etc sold in the US - just flavored water with a drop of alcohol. US brands differ by the amount of water and size of the dab. local or imported. must meet US standards for flavored water with carbonation and drops of alcohol.
Well I’m glad I never liked any alcohol.
Celebrated my 21st birthday at Octoberfest in Munich, and the next nine months in Denmark. Couldn’t drink an Anerican beer for over a year. Glad U.S. craft brewing began shortly after that.
Definitely.
Especially if she can make a good sandwich.
This thread is useless without...pitchers!
I like to think of beer (and wine) as the main method utilized in western culture to avoid death from water borne diseases like dysentery. Beers and ales have just enough Alcohol content to kill most of the germs. It has the additional benefit or side effect of getting you a little drunk.
