When I lived in Germany I found out what real beer was like. I lived in a little town named Bad Windsheim. It's fest beer, that was brewed specifically for the beerfest, was a beer drinker's dream come true: a perfect beer with great flavor, no bitterness, no aftertaste other than the wonderful hint of flavor that rivaled the initial taste of a cool one on a hot day, and an 28% alcoholic content.

Sam Adams would be spit out on the floor in favor of that Burger Brau attainment of perfection. I still have trouble with American brews. They're a bunch of wannabees that get attention from the poor americans.

The best beer doesn't leave Germany, unless it's in a stomach.

I had always heard how wonderful europeans had it as far as a good beer was concerned. When I went last summer(England,France,Switzerland,Germany,Belgium)I was disappointed. I couldn't find anything there that I couldn't get back home(New Orleans). Had Spaten,Paulaner,etc. The imitation english pubs at home had easily 70 more choices than the real English pubs. A festival beer is one thing but where would you find anything different the rest of the time?

Yep, even the cheap bar stuff I had there was pretty damn good... I tell ya what, that weissbier goes straight through ya though... Y'knowwhatImean?!

After being baptized with American beer, the German stuff is like drinking motor oil.
