Having a crate of beer may lead to the most different kinds of results. We all remember the pictures, where drunks were set up in circles of bottles or we recall all those different bets that where part of the TV show "Wetten Dass?", where crates have been stapled and climbed or pyramids of beer were built. The last days I discovered another way, how people have messed up with beer. Someone obviously gave the empty beer bottle to his child to let it be ornamented. Either it was just a testing subject, or the result was unwanted. Anyway, the engraved bottle made it back into the refilling cycle, and landed in my crate of Kulmbacher beer.

This pictures shows how we started todays assignment - no need to hurry - gather the thoughts first - and have a beer over it. Great start to do a creative project!

My current header picture belongs to one of the cultural events which is related in Bamberg’s tradition being a beer town. In autumn before the hard winter months begin the local breweries are brewing a special strong beer. When the Bock-beer is available the breweries are having a sort of kick off event when the new beer is tapped. These events are very popular amongst both and older people and especially amongst students. Although everybody knows that it will be overcrowded (sometimes you got to be there as early as 7pm to be admitted to the event) and that you’ll have to wait ages for your beer, it is an absolute must to visit at least one of those events every season.

This year the first Bockbieranstich I made it to visit was the one of the Fässla brewery. I went there with Thomas and Fabian and of course I met a lot of other students there, too! When we arrived at 6:30pm the queue to get a beer was humongous! Luckily we met friends who were already waiting there for a while, so we managed to get our first beer within minutes! Due to the mild wheather it was fun to stand at the brewery grounds and we had a good time!
