Ten Things I learned at Stark Beer Fest

1. If someone tells you that it's a sneaky beer, that probably means you should not even finish your own, let alone help others finish theirs.

2. German men do not always ask if they can buy you a drink. They just do and it's huge.

3. Beer halls are HUGE and LOUD

4. If you have a dirndl you should definitely wear it to any sort of fest. Everyone does :) Guys look cute in lederhosen, it lets them get away with more.

5. Don't tell your friend that the beers they are drinking are equivilent to eating an entire loaf of bread or at least 16 slices for each beer. It might take some of the enjoyment out of the beer :)

6. Festivals here are more fun/accepting than the ones in the states. People don't really start fights here. If you fall on them they just smile and help you up.

7. It is okay to dance on tables, and the guys usually start it.

8. The German guy sitting across from me knew about 10 words: they included beautiful, cute, fine, really, very, girlfriend, wife and my baby. He used them all on me and told anyone who he saw that I was his girlfriend. Alicia and I think we should start up a business that makes pick up line books in all different languages.

9. When going to a beer fest make sure you go with friends who are stronger than the beer.

10. When all else fails, give someone your purse, hold their hand and follow directions without being a goober :)

Thank you Katherine, Jennifer, Nicholas, and Alicia for a fabulous beer fest experience. It was fabulously fun and German :)
