Episode 10 is here! I’m really proud to have made it this long, since so many folks pod-fade once they realize how much work is involved. I don’t pod-fade, baby, I procrastinate! So, yeah, it took a few weeks to get it together but I was sick, had vacation, the dog ate it, there was this big monster and…well, let’s keep looking forward, shall we? This episode is about GERMAN BEER after all!
-What makes German beer so special (Rheinheitsgebot)
-What are the differences between German Ales and Lagers
-Some of the most popular types of German Ales and Largers
-German Beer Culture
-All the most important German Beer lingo
Dean Hunt : who has a killer blog about internet marketing
D’Arcy Drury: a wonderful listener in Dubai
Jim Hassler: a brand new listener from St. Louis
Martin Lees: who has an excellent website about his travels and Geocaching
…and last but not least, here is the German Beer Drinker’s mini survival dictionary:
eins, zwei, drei = one, two, three
Bier = Beer
von Fass = from the tap, as in tap-beer
Flasche = bottle
Dose = can
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Ich moechte ein Bier bitte. = I would like a beer please.
Zwei Bier von Fass bitte. = two tap beers please.
Keine Dosenbier! = no canned beer!
So, I hope you folks find this one useful. Don’t forget to check out the Beatsteaks homepage.
