Friday beer garden

Just checked the cocktail list and there's one called "Blythe's blood" - seems very appropriate for Pirate Day! Anyone heading over there any time soon?

No FBG this week?

*** Oktoberfest aficionados please stop reading here ***

Yes, I know it's O'fest, but a little drinkie in a normal environment would be nice for those of us who fail to see the attraction of sitting crammed in a beer tent with thousands of other sweaty bodies, swilling beer for hours, having one's ears blasted by crap music, and witnessing the greed for profit make a mockery of tradition.

Am I the only sane person around here?

We are going to anounce soon.

You sound like you're the only old person here!

Hi there,
Sorry for the delayed email,

I’ve booked the Escobar - Breisacherstr. 19, Haidhausen starting at 6:30pm
We have the tall tables in the bar area.
Well known as an after work local, they have a good selection of food and cocktails.

Public transport: all S-Bahns or U5 to Ostbahnhof
Here is a Map
And a review or two

Oh and the tables are booked in the name of Robin Spitz Swallows

Gwyn
as usual SMS or call 01733510658 if you are lost or can't find us.

Damn, a great venue and I can't make it! We had a good time there last time.

Since we were there last they have started selling Air Guitars, no really, honest, not as good as the real thing as played by Ian though.

A good one does make a difference you know!

Excellent choice! Always a great atmosphere there.

I'd bring my own air guitar, but I broke the G string on it, and I don't have a replacement. So I won't be able to play "Air on a G string".

If Petersen is at the Friday Beer Garden meetup tomorrow perhaps someone would be kind enough to ask him to get in touch with me.

Oooh, cocktail heaven I'll be there...making do with beer at Oktoberfest is wearing a bit thin now!

darn, one of my fav... but the hash calls

Hey! Are newbies welcome? Will there be enough room for me and emmabel?

Of course they are, all are welcome. You can have my place this week!

Sure! Just turn up and introduce yourself. and we'll make sure you feel welcome!

Thanks! We'll probably get there around half 7 since we're at work till pretty late today. Presumably you'll still be at the same place?

Slim chance I will be there....

After 8pm though....

We shan't move on to any other place. People usually turn up over the space of a few hours. Some might go off for a curry though. And as things start to wind up there, others will go off in search of a last beer in a late bar. Just one more little tiny beer to wash down all that Tequila.

really enjoyed the event thanx for organising it.

Sorry to be jumping the gun, but I'm trying to plan ahead, and wondering whether the Friday BG will be a Thursday BG this week, seeing as how the Friday is a holiday. Or will there be both a Thursday and a Friday BG? Or neither, if everyone is totally wrecked from the O'fest?

If it's in Nymphenburg/Neuhausen we can watch "Burn After Reading" after our weekly alky intake.

Hello All,
This week I've booked the Wassermann in Neuhausen, they do have great cocktails and food, plus there are lots of curry houses in the area for those who like to "Burn After Eating". . . sorry about the link, no one has a website dedicated to him yet.

They have a happy hour too:
Daily 17:00 - 20:00 and 22:30 - 00:30 Uhr
Alle Cocktails 5,50 EUR
XXL Cocktails 7,50 EUR
Cocktails of the day 4,90 EUR
XXL 6,90 EUR

This Wassermann is on Elvirastr. 19, nearest Ubahn is U1 Maillingerstr. You can also goto Donnersbergerbrücker or HackerBrücker on the Sbahn, it's about the same distance from both. There is no 54 bus connection!

Oh! and I should have booked the places in the name of Leonard Cohen, well at least I would have, but sadly I didn't, I booked it in the name of Gwyn Evans instead. . Don't ask.

As usual all are welcome, newbies too.
If you can't find us call me on 0173 3510658

Just checked out that "Burn After Eating" link. I get an error message:


Thank goodness for firewalls. I shudder to think what a Lurker-Mark strength curry would do to my computer's innards.

Seeing as the O'fest is still going on until the 5th, it would be a good idea to avoid the rowdy, druken, unwashed mob of O'fest vistiors at Donnersburger/Hacker Brucke.. Best to take the U1 Maillingerstr.

For what it's worth, I'm thinking of attending

I'll be there from about 18:40...ish!

And I'll be there a little earlier than that...ish!

Not sure if my bus goes there.

I often find reading the information provided helps.

I love it when my stalker takes such care of me and worries about what i'm doing.

Maybe we should just get married so you can check on me all the time?

But would that make you a staker?

Cat and I might make a pre-Cinema appearance.

Hello my crunchy munchies!

On Friday we have reserved the high tables and standing area by the bar at Zoozie'z from 7pm. Wittelsbacherstraße 15. Baldeplatz.
They play great music there. I've been told I dun air guitar there once. But I don't believe them. The cocktails and food are good too!
Everyone is welcome to join in the party. We'll be easy to find as we'll be all along the bar on the left as you go in. I booked in the name Benny Hill for some reason.

See where we've been on Fridays

take care, Ian

Zoozie's Website
Transport Direct with Bus 58 to Baldeplatz or  U3/U6 Goetheplatz 

I shall bring my camera, then I can add to the growing number of shots of you in action!
A grand choice of venue I must say. The decor alone is worth the visit, it's not every bar that has a DJ in a pulpit!

I agree completely Will definitely be along...as Allershausen says, the DJ is also cool - last time he was spinning and playing some groovy tunes!

Hello Guys

I am to Munich , 1 week here!

Would like to join you on Friday with another friend of mine who is staying with me for the week

Sounds like good fun

See you then

Just printed directions, might be late but Ill be there.

I'll be there . . . I could use a drink come Friday

Seeing as Zoozie's about 3 steps from our front door and we're new to Munich... Please add my boyfriend and I to the list!

There is no list for the Friday Beer Garden, you just turn up and say hello, and we usually say hello back!

Dont listen to Allers! (Allers? who the f*ck is Allers?) We bend over backwards to welcome new people. It usually scares them away, but we have a laugh about it. Well it is better than the "Baldrick in a dress" sketch:

Percy: Oh Edmund, I … [sees Baldrick: to Baldrick] Hello there. [to Blackadder]Edmund, you didn’t tell me we had a guest. And such a pretty one, too. [to Baldrick] Well, you’re a little cutie to be hiding yourself away all these years. What is your name?
Blackadder: He’s called Baldrick.
Percy: [with a lilt] Ball-drick. Edmund used to have a servant called Baldrick. But anyway - away with such small talk. Lady – a kiss.
Baldrick: What?
Percy: And so modest too. Come on you little tease, you know you want to: give us a kiss.
Baldrick: Alright, if you say so. [grabs Percy on the sides of the head with both hands; kisses Percy on the lips for about 10 seconds, then lets go]
Percy: [gagging] Oh dear; what an original perfume.
Blackadder: That is our Baldrick: he’s wearing a dress.
Percy: Ugh! 

You've got to stop doing that, you'll do yourself a mischief and besides people are starting to talk!

And now for some Air Guitar news:
Champion breaks string during final

AND

Get your own real Air Guitar Pro here (Is he speaking backwards?)

As long as all they do is talk.

Hey guys, me and the girl are planning on going. Just FYI. Be gentle, we're noobs!

Noobs always welcome! We were all noobs once, and some of us still are!

How will I recognise you?

I really liked this Friday Beer Garden, although my body is a bit confused about new 80s music belly dancing. And I always said that men dance belly dance better :-). Good night..

Zoozie'z was great. Well done Ian, as always.

Great location...what a crowd too! Even though I'm pretty practised in cocktail drinking, I thought they were pretty strong last night...got a sore head this morning

@Ddajleng
Thanks for the belly dancing tips
