- Altbier poured at Uerige Brewery in Dusseldorf. Traditionally served in straight up 200-300 ml glassware.
- Traditional architecture greets everywhere you go in Germany, but it is more difficult to find authenticity and truly local beer.
- Will the future portray beer as this miniature of a beer garden displayed at a church? Will German culture become a museum piece of bygone days?
- Wooden barrels used to be traditional means to keg draft beer. Wood never came in contact with the beer, as the barrels are lined with a "pitch" that did not impart detectable flavors. Now metal kegs are the norm. Wood is mostly use for show, but still used by some small brewers and special beers.
