    Als ich in 7 Klasse war, hatte ich ein Freund von Deutschland. Er war Austauschstudent. Eines Tages erlaubten wir ihm, über unser Telefon seine Familie in Deutschland anzurufen, und das war das erste Mal, dass ich Deutsch gesprochen hörte. Es klang so cool, dass ich beschloss, es zu studieren... von 9. Klass bis zur 12. Klasse.

      But one (two) of the biggest clichés had to be shown and proven anyway! Oktoberfest and Lederhosen! 😄😄😄
      I'm a German too and I totally agree with you!
      Germany has so much more to offer apart from Bratwurst, Sauerkraut, Haxen, Hendl, Lederhosen and Oktoberfest. I'm always a bit sad because it seems that we are a bit "reduced" to a kind of Bavarian style. Don't get me wrong, Bavaria is beautiful, but our other 15 states apart from Bavaria have also many beautiful things (people, cities, landscapes, food, festivals, fairs...) to offer. 🙂

      The foam acts as a protective layer-not just to prevent anything from falling into the beer, but also to keep the carbon dioxide and aroma inside, so it stays fresh for a longer period. This way, after a conversation with friends, it won’t taste like it's three days old.

    Loved this video for 2 reasons. One was all the usual 'Bourbon Moth' banter. The other was on an emotional level.
    My maternal grandfather was German and a professional woodworker in KS. and OK. I never knew him as he died around the time of my birth. My mom would recount how, as a little girl, she would help him in the shop with small projects and sweeping up after him. (She would get misty telling these stories.) There are still a few of his pieces held by members of our large extended family.
    Though a totally different situation, I still felt some kind of connection. Thank you!

I lived in Germany for several years, and like most ANglo-Saxons had no previous idea how dry and funny the German sense of humour is. Of course he was going to take you to get Lederhosen, especially if he had lined up Oktoberfest as well. Eight beers is impressive, as are the young ladies who carry 8 of those Steins at a time when serving tables. Despite the early hour, my mouth was salivating at the memory of the Schnitzels, it is again as I write about them. Btw the build was good too!!

Their hosts, Chris and Nicole were very friendly and welcoming to the Bourbon Moth crew. Giving them the red carpet treatment. And the piece of furniture that they built together was very nice. And hopefully Chris will send some photos of the finished piece to Bourbon Moth so we can all see how great it turned out.

      As a German:
      For the Home Depots in Germany: Most are visited by our Tradesfolk, so going to fetch something means a Breakfast break. I literaly know no Home Depot which hasn't a Foodstand around.
      And for the shoe-store and cothing stores having Foodstands around: The man go outside for a snack and
      the wife can shop longer and spend more money, and the man is well fed and won't complain. Thats a marketing trick. And thats why the Home Depots have fancier foods: They need to serve for the wifes as well.
