German Beer Explained for Non-Germans, Direct from Germany - Wolters World

http://www.woltersworld.com
drinking a German Beer is part of any trip to Germany. Here we are at te Ernst August Brauhaus in Hannover, Germany enjoying some tasty German fair and discussing some of the vocab you will need to get the right beer where ever you are in Germany. Bier - beer, Helles - light beer (in color not calories), Dunkles/Alt - dark beer, grosses - big, kleines - small, Sekt - sparkling wine, Wein - wine, Rotwein - red win, Weisswein - white whine, Gluehwein - hot wine, Prost - cheers, then there are beers especially from certain parts and cities in Germany. Alt Beer is from Duesseldorf, Kolsch is from Cologne. And remember buy the "city" beer from whatever city you are in, as that will be the freshest beer and most popular. And if you get to Bamberg, have my favorite "Rauchbier" or smoked beer. It tastes like BACON!!!

: This video is great for American tourists who plan on travelling to Germany and are not familiar with the language or the main different types of drinks available and how it applies to the German culture. This ranges from various types and sizes of beer and wine to being able to order a drink with ease. This video also encompasses some basic cultural aspects that every German abides by when drinking amongst one another. American tourists should be able to pick up on these cultural cues to avoid looking like an "ugly" American. This video was very helpful thanks again for posting it!

Sorry, but that doesn't cut it, German beer is too complicated for a five-minute video. For example, there are at least four major types of "light" beer, and almost every town has its own.

Its Weizen, not Weissen. Thx for explaining the differences between all the kinds of beer though, as not all German drink/like beer ;).
