It's such a fascinating city with a dramatic history. Reichstag, Brandenburger Tor, Ku Damm, Gedachtniskirche, Checkpoint Charly.... Which other city has some many stories to tell...? <br />I learnt today that Budweiser is really not American (no, it's Belgian, owned by Belgian company Inbev - lol.<br />You do look fantastic in your jacket and beret - you could easily play a part in Atomic Blonde, not so bad movie situated in Berlin.<br />Looking foward to the next chapter.<br />Virginia<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12717678175374599627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5521813469132348201.post-888034656054593432017-11-03T20:22:52.037-07:002017-11-03T20:22:52.037-07:00Faith -

For years, the Anheiser-Busch company had to use "Bud" to sell their beer in Europe, while the Czech brew couldn't use their name in the USA. The Czech beer was known as Czechwar here. One was the beer of kings, while the other was the king of beers. Both are now owned by a large international holding company, and are starting to sell more on each other's turf. <br /><br />The key difference between European Beers vs. American Beers - European Beer is consumed shortly after brewing in most cases. American Beer has to have a "long" shelf life, and uses stabilizers such as rice in the brew. As such, American Bud could never pass the German Rheinheitsgebot (German Beer Purity Law). <br /><br />Hopefully, you were able to have a taste of that beer you were holding....<br /><br />MMarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18346866501735405647noreply@blogger.com
