Augustiner

Saturday, July 8, 2006

I had assumed that Austrian's would be supporting their neighbors to the north. I was very, very wrong.

It may have been wrong about that. After watching the Germany vs. Portugal match for third and fourth place at Augustiner Brewery, I believe that Germany has a sizeable and enthusiastic fanbase in Austria (or Salzberg, at least).

Augustiner is a great pub, by the way. We watched the match on a twelve foot wide screen at the far end of a large beer hall, sitting at one of three 75 foot tables aligned perpendicular to the screen, drinking the haus brau out of one-liter steins.

Das es goot.
