The morning after....

Maybe more appropriately titled... "headaches AREN'T us"! That's right, for you first timers accustomed to the typical morning hangover caused by the Bud Flu, or the Miller Lite experience, not to worry. In addition to being great tasting, and fresh, German beer has this unique quality to not make you feel bad in the morning. The Germans figured it out.... if you feel bad in the morning, you may not drink more beer.

Because of the freshness and lack of preservatives and carbonation, you will not experience the hang-over headache. This is not to say you will not be tired running for that 06:22 train after head meets pillow at 02:00. You just won't have that pounding Excedrin Headache number 99.

Coming soon, some reflections on our first trip, inspired by Barleyman's synopsis of how this all came about. Read about that here.

He Chugger,
Signs that you are too drunk would be...

You lose arguments with inanimate objects.
You have to hold onto the lawn to keep from falling off the earth.
Job interfering with your drinking.
Your doctor finds traces of blood in your alcohol stream.
Career won't progress beyond Senator of Massachusetts.
The back of your head keeps getting hit by the toilet seat.
Sincerely believe alcohol to be the elusive 5th food group.
24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case - coincidence?? - I think not!
Two hands and just one mouth... - now THAT'S a drinking problem!
You can focus better with one eye closed.
The parking lot seems to have moved while you were in the bar.
Your twin sons are named Barley and Hops.
Hey, 5 beers has just as many calories as a burger, screw dinner!
Mosquitoes catch a buzz after attacking you
At AA meetings you begin: "Hi, my name is... uh..."
Your idea of cutting back is less salt.
You wake up in the bedroom, your underwear is in the bathroom, you fell asleep clothed. - hmmm.
The whole bar says 'Hi' when you come in...
