 Poster: A snowHead

Steilhang, I will have no problem whatsoever convincing Berliners that Bierwanking is something Bavarians do often. Where do you think that frothy head on a Maß comes from, anyway?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Just playing with you, harriet, all in good fun.
There are two mountains actually, one called W@nk and one called Biberwier. Biberwier is the one in Austria, loosely attached to Lermoos. I'm pretty sure that's what you mean. W@nk is in Garmisch (well, Partenkirchen actually) and used to open for skiing but has been closed for a few years. The locals tell me it was a great mountain. They run gondola for hikers in the summer and at holiday periods in the winter. You can still see the chairlifts sitting up there unused.
Larme Ente is indeed the wooden bar in Lermoos. I prefer the Williams schaps with chunks of pear over Jäger, myself. Check on the Alpendisco, too.

harriet has definitely got me looking forward to my day in Garmisch in two weeks. 
Any suggestion for the best place for a bierwank? I shall also definitely check out the Irish bar, but probably not bother asking for a bierwank there.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

andyph, Best not to do it in the Irish Bar. But if you find a traditional Bavarian bierkeller full of locals then go in, stand on a table and say to the crowd " Wer von Euch Wichsern trinkt hier Bier?" Some of them are sure to show some reaction!

andyph, if you like your largers and beers landbier is a good drink , also you gota try the figling shots they come in small bottles and i gota say i had one too many at ahrwald then skied down to the carpark half cut they are soo good!(i had 5 or 6 while waiting for the bf as i went of with his cousin for an hour or so and im a complete lightweight as i dont often drink) it comes in a clear bottle with a black label and green and purple writting (just in case i completely have the wrong spelling) deffo gota go to that larme ente i met some well cool german dudes there ami in berlin its the w@nk thats closed....it aparently wasnt making enough money so they just let it go even though the bf's cousin said it was great for borders as it had lots of bumps and twists and turns etc etc would of loved to of ski'ed that if i could purely for the name

harriet, sadly my days of generous (ahem) beer consumption are behind me. However I am a great believer in sampling the local specialities so I shall check out the figling (?). In case of confusion I shall simply ask my Bavarian colleagues to assist.
Likewise, Steilhang, I shall practise your useful phrase on them first. Since having to pay a forfeit in a mediaeval cellar bar in Augsburg (involving pledging my love to one of my colleagues whilst in the stocks) I have half of them believing I can speak German anyway.

andyph, definately take Steilhang's advice on how to greet locals in a bierkeller. What will at first appear to be punches are actually the traditional way of accepting somebody in to the group.

Biberwier is closed? Aww that's where I learned to ski back ithe day when one piece dayglo ski suits were all the rage .... it was "klein und fein". Great for learners... it was also dirt cheap.
Steilhang,  Boese... boese
