BEER OR NO BEER

After the Great Britain Beer Festival, in London, all the brewery presidents decided to go out for a beer. The guy from Corona sits down and says, "Hey Senor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona."

The bartender dusts off a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him.

The guy from Budweiser says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser." The bartender gives him one.

The guy from Coors says, "I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water, give me a Coors." He gets it.

The guy from Guinness sits down and says, "Give me a Coke." The bartender is a little taken aback, but gives him what he ordered.

The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask "Why aren't you drinking a Guinness?" and the Guinness president replies, "Well, I figured if you guys aren't drinking beer, neither would I."

But it's not even October yet!  It's raining?  Geschieht ihnen recht.  (Serves them right.)  :D

Lol - it lasts till October 3.

I was never at the Oktoberfest in Munich (I only stopped once there during the event, because I had to switch trains and had about an hour or so to spend in a nice beer pub near the railway station with a good beer, of course), before continuing to Berlin. But we have our beer events too, in many places of our country - and our grilled sausage parties. This is one of my former "exercises" - around sausages and beer, and in German:


Es geht um die Wurst

 

Viel zu banal ist uns're Wurst,

da denkt man meistens an den Durst;

dabei leert man gern ein Mass Bier,

ob Korporal oder Barbier,

doch braucht's dazu auch festen Stoff

sonst gäb' es ständig Riesenzoff.

 

Gegrillt, geröstet und gebraten,

auch gekocht wird sie geraten;

Kartoffeln sind unerlässlich –

gezuckert wären sie zu grässlich –

als Salat zu Wienerwürsten:

man wird kaum nach Rotwein dürsten.

 

Zur Bratwurst müssen Rösti her,

Zwiebeln und Sauce geh’n einher;

alles, was der Gaumen begehrt,

wird in der Regel gern verzehrt

und für einen guten Transit,

klingen die Gläser zum Prosit!

Today is really foggy, but a bit warmer (yesterday, it was heavily clouded, with a chilly 13 °C in the afternoon and Monday was rainy)

I was just listening to "Le galérien":

Les Compagnons de la chanson -



"Le galérien" was an old Russian song, translated by Maurice Druon (you might have read "The Accursed Kings"):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Accursed_Kings


As for the translation, I think that I'll have to "DIY" (err - myself).

Lol, I don't know if I tasted the Blue Moon beer, as I don't remember which brands we had while visiting San Francisco with colleagues during our free time - which was quite a while ago.

Einst sagte ein alter Biersäufer
Einem lustigen Bratwurstverkäufer:
"Bin bestimmt ein Wurstfresser,
Doch mit Bier schmeckt's mir besser,
D'rum bin ich ein Bratwurstbiertäufer."

@TheOtherTink


Kartoffeln, Wurst und eins, zwei Bier,

genügen dem "normalen Tier",

wenn man nicht bloss geniesst zur Zier;

doch beim Säufer zehrt meist die Gier,

die ihn treibt wie den wilden Stier;

da fehlen Anstand und Manier,

gleich, wie ein Chaos beim Turnier,

man überhört gar das Klavier.


That looks quite good indeed - there are quite a few variations with beer, of course, and with

rösti

or potato salad

etc.

Blue Moon is very good (I like their Mosaic IPA), but what's wrong with Guinness Extra Stout on a cold winter's day?  :)

Lol - I think that I tasted some Guiness Extra Stout in a pub in good company, while visiting London.
