Weißbier - Is it not cool to drink this? - Munich

I must admit I love Weiss Beer, last year at the wiesn' I stayed in the small weiss bier tent just to drink wheat beer. Is it not cool to enjoy a Franziakaner ? Please Advise ?

@ the Wies'n? no, definately not cool.

otherwise, yes, during the day...

Drink what you want, when you want...who cares aboot everybody else...(well, everybody except your girlfriend)

I love alcohol and will drink whatever I damn well please. If I feel like having a Mai Tai with a shot of whisky on the side and a bud lite chaser, I will. More likely though, one bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.

Often I drink Weissbier at biergartens because I don't like to have a Maß Helles. I can't drink that much liquid before it gets warm. Tip for the savvy: try the Sommerbier at Chinesicher. It comes in 1/2L and has way more flavor than Helles-wasser.

dunkles weißbier...the only choice!!!

@one51 - I hear ya and share many of those feelings.

The problem I have with Weis'n at the Wies'n is that often I find myself drinking it alone, yes, with nobody else. Often when I drink alone I prefer to be by myself. But not at Oktoberfest...

The only German beer better than Dunkles Weissbier is Starkbier IMO... so Dunkles Weissbier for 10 months a year

For putting on weight, you mean?

Can't fault your English, Tim
In this case I'm having problems with the semantics part. Or is it just me

To answer the original question: No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with drinking weissbier, nor is there a stigma attached. What gives you the idea that there might be?

Jeeves, he was quoting a song...sort of.

When I drink alone, I also prefer to be by myself.

You know what sux... I come in last night about half past ten, that baby of mine wouldn't let me in.

Just kidding. I guess you can't fault a Brit for not knowing George Thorogood and the Destroyers.

I was out last night too, but I was walking forty seven miles and by the end my feet felt like barbed wire. Funny, because I was wearing a crobra-snake necktie. Anyway, I got home to my brand new house on the roadside (which is made out of rattlesnake hide and has a brand new chimney put on top, made out of human skulls. Sometimes I get in trouble for that, especially in Germany, but I digress). Perhaps next time one of you would like to take a little walk with me?
