Don't get him started on what is beer or what is beer worthy of the
name. :-)

We could be getting into a "Top Vs Bottom" fermentation flame war with this.
Would you believe that my first try at brewing beer. I spread the yeast
on a slice of toast and floated it on top of the wort.

Three fellow students -- one originally from Munich, one originally from
Cologne, and one originally from Dortmund -- visit a bar. The guy from
Munich orders a "Weizen" (the stuff the Bavarians down from 0.5 to 1.0
liter tankards), the guy from Cologne orders a "Kölsch" (the stuff that
people from Cologne and vicinity sip from 0.2 liter cylindrical glasses).
The guy from Dortmund orders a Coke.
Puzzled, the other two ask him why he doesn't order a "Pils" (the stuff
people in the Ruhr area drink from 0.3 or 0.33 liter stemmed glasses).
"Naah," he declines with a gesture of generosity. "If you won't have a
beer, neither will I."
Now, what do we learn from the story?
That the students are probably immatriculated at the university of
Cologne, as Kölsch isn't widely available outside its region of origin.

"im feuerstrom der reben" it is not.
All this bile over cat's pee.
If you must drink a gallon or the equivalent, in real money. Make it
Guinness or a pint of heavy.

I love this! I learned something today, thanks!
Note: I am not a beer (general term) drinker so this was new to me ;-)

Weizen comes in the tall 0.5L glasses, the tankards are for a Helles. I
don't think I ever saw anyone drinking a 1.0L weizen.

See? Even Germans have no idea what the Fucking Hell (*) the Bavarians
drink ;)
(* no, that's neither a swear word nor English language, that's a German
beer brand, named after an Austrian village - see

Isn't Hell a town in Norway (which does freeze over every year)?

Indeed there is. I liked the Sabre Dance on the album "To Hell with the
Boys".
