Spaten Premium

I'm enjoying a Spaten Premium at work. Nice and malty, yet still crisp enough to be a good summer beer. And it occurs to me — I'm enjoying better beer than the World Cup fans in Germany. Because I'm drinking German beer. And they're having ... Budweiser.

Well, okay, not now — at this moment it's 1am in Germany and the last game of the day ended two hours ago, so I presume they're getting blitzed (whoops, made a peculiarly German pun there) at the bars. On real beer. (In fact, I assume they're getting really blitzed, because Germany just pulled out a last-victory over Poland. Boy, that's gotta really piss off the Poles. They know a thing or two about German blitzing.)
