It's Beer Thirty

Picked up some more Oktoberfestbier while it's still available. I think the Hofbräu is my favorite.

Of course there's pizza involved, from Frank Pepe's coal fired oven.

We always have Chianti or Sangria at Franks's with our pizza, but beer at home with pizza.

Time for everyone to have a cold one today to celebrate the end of Prohibition, December 5, 1933. I can imagine there were some huge parties on that day.

I had to turn on a different kind of heat, for medicinal purposes.

Thanks, gents, it was deeeeeeeeeeeeelicious. Dig Deep is a local Cumberland craft brewery, I didn't think they would mind.

We just returned from a trip to Czech Republic and Hungary. The Czechs are serious beer drinkers. They love Pils and believe it should be cold and poured with a full head of foam. Not trying to cheat you out of beer, there’s a mark on each glass that shows you got a full 1/2 liter of beer - on top is the foam. When you go to a bar or restaurant the beer barrels are typically on prominent display - they are re-filled daily. The typical bar tab has beer mugs on it - every time your table orders beer the waiter or bartender puts a slash to mark the number of beers served.

Interesting post, Ken. In this part of the country, Pilsner Urquell is about the only Czech beer that I see, always found it to be tasty. Did you enjoy the food as well? I hope you post some pics in one of the threads.

Pilsner Urquell is popular there also, at least based on what I observed. The food was great. Both beer and food are relatively inexpensive. Lots of pork, but duck and chicken are popular too. The Europeans know how to cook duck - I had it several times. Here’s a picture of my meal at a restaurant in Prague called simply “Pork’s”. It’s a roasted pork knuckle served with potatoes, sauerkraut, sautéed onions and mustard. And of course, beer.

I’ll post some pictures elsewhere of the amazing buildings, bridges, museums, etc.
