Augustiner Edelstoff is my favorite beer in the world. Spent many a day at the Augustiner Braustuben in Munich while at brewing school....I was 25, and on weekends, I could manage 6-10 liters with little difficulty.
The Braustuben is also one of my favorite restaurants in the world. Wish I could upload some pics for you.
I went there two years ago for the first time in 20 years. The beer is flawless. Flawless.

I received excellent advice before visiting Germany (mostly Bavaria and the Rhineland) years ago. I was told there was no need to ask for a particular beer - to just order “ein bier, bitte” wherever I was. I was never disappointed.

Unless you are in Dusseldorf, in which case you are only going to get top-fermented altbier, a brown ale, unless you specify something else.
Re: Healthcare
FWIW----the other reason that this is good advice is that Germany has what are called "tied houses". This means that a brewery agrees to pay for things like the draught system and taps, print the menus, etc. In exchange, the bar/restaurant agrees to purchase beer from the brewery. So going into a bar that is financed by Augustiner...and asking for a Spaten or Ayinger pour is pointless, as they will only carry Augustiner.jhu72 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:29 pmYup.SCLaxAttack wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 10:16 amAmerican IPAs are further proof that most Americans’ taste buds don’t work, but they think they’ve elevated from Bud and Miller.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2020 9:46 pmYou have great taste!

Tied houses are illegal in the US....but that law is broken all the time. Especially in Boston and Chicago, to cite just two very corrupt cities....

Chinese couple (spies?) were escorted from a top Canadian infectious disease lab in Winnipeg after possibly either taking samples and/or technology to China:

My Twitter feed says they took pathogen samples to Wuhan...and the husband specialized in coronavirus research.

Sheesh...that is scary stuff.

What is scary is the biological weapon delivery system the Russian’s have developed but standing up to them doesn’t matter anymore. Hasn’t mattered since 1991.

Buckle up. Going to be a LOT more cases.
Nice to know that NIH has announced that they have a vaccine that has passed initial tests for safety and that they could roll out this vaccine if conditions warrant.

Primary example of why NIH funding should not be cut as some in the Trump administration have suggested.

All of these life threatening illnesses abound, yet the deluded right wingers tell us there is no need for health care reform while tRUMP reduces health care for the poor and the elderly.
