@LoboLives: haha... yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
But to tell the truth, I have problems comprehending what happens to our US visitors. I've never been to the states and therefore didn't drink American beer, yet. If you really think German beer is strong, then I'm really asking myself how you can get drunk in America at all (besides whiskey and stuff)?! I mean especially in Bavaria beer is almost part of your daily bread and butter... so what if I'm visiting the States and really need to get drunk, but don't like whiskey and wine? Ok, I'll stop making fun of it and ask a real question: how much % alcohol does the average beer have in the States?
