Ecuador is looking a tad disconnected, but other than that it looks to be a good match.

I think I'll just make a day of it. Who has the bottle opener? I've got a cold Warsteiner tempting me.

There's Warsteiner in Atlanta? Huh, maybe it is an attractive city.

They had Warsteiner at the Kingston Mine, too:

$15 buckets?!?

Yeah, Thomas, it's my new favorite beer. We can find it in the grocery store, even, not just the specialty shops.

That was a beautiful goal.

So far .... good during the training with 25,000 watching them in Offenbach :wink:

(George Jetson, the second match [1:0 against Poland momentarily] only started 35 mins ago.)

Well, Augustiner is better of course, but Warsteiner sure beats the hell out of Budweiser. (The American Budweiser anyway. The Butdweiser that actually comes from Budweis tastes much better.)

It's hard to imagine you being that far from beer.

Perhaps we should give our American friends an idea what size a German county is. From Walter's house to the brewery, it's about 15 miles. (Correct, Walter?)

Next pub 20 yards, to be precise :wink:

And two different breweries are even closer, but in other counties (not to speak of various pub-breweries ...)


But since I don't drink - such is just part of the "official visiting Walter's tours" Laughing

Ecuador just walked another one in. Looks like they've got it locked. Poland's defenders probably ought not to try to trap them offsides since they're too slow to pull it off.
