JonasD Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Okay, here we go! I am Jonas (Group: Hallo, Jonas!) and I've been addicted to miniatures for almost 10 years now. *sigh* Besides being a student for becoming an english teacher, I also am a freelance sculptor. Yes, I started to make my own stuff! It NEVER ENDS! *snif* Right now I am working for overall historical companies, but I also try to make some stuff for SciFi, Fantasy, SteamPunk whatever companies. My other hobbies are: My girlfriend (she deserves it), playing guitar, music (METAL) and drawing. I also like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain. And Beer.

Duende Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 I also like... Beer. You're German. Isn't saying you like beer redundant? :laugh: Welcome to Wyrd. I hope you get some of your sculpted stuff shown here soon! And don't mind me, I may be American but I'm mostly German by heritage (and oddly enough, I don't like beer!) :tongue2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonasD Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I may be American but I'm mostly German by heritage (and oddly enough, I don't like beer!) :tongue2: Well I do not mind, because after having tried the American stuff, I have to agree to Monty Python: Anerican Beer is like having sex in a canoe! F****ing close to water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 @Jonas There's plenty of good American beer! It's only the major brands that are coloured water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonasD Posted December 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Seems I missed on those, when I was over there, Besides, a bavarian is really very special about beer, try Augustiner (speak: Owgusteena) and you know what I am into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 If you ever should come across beers called Gonzo Imperial Porter or Sierra Nevada Stout you might change your mind! Those are some of the best beers I've tried, and I've tried a lot of beers! :proud: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauth81 Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Well, the difference in beer-brewing is: Even the big companies in Germany make decent, if not good beer. Of course, the beer of micro breweries is almost always better, that´s true in Germany too (and I guess, across the world). On a sidenote: I recently watched an us-american TV ad for Miller. Funnily, they won an award at the world beer competition. The category they won was "American Style Lager". I guess they had to compete with Budweiser and Coors ...

Duende Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Of course, the beer of micro breweries is almost always better, that´s true in Germany too (and I guess, across the world). There's a few around here, one that I'm familiar with is called Gettysbrew (in Gettysburg, figures). They brew several different beers, but all beer tastes bitter to me... however they also brew their own root beer and ginger ale, which is excellent! I gotta find a reason to go back there sometime, so if any of you find yourself in Pennsylvania for some inexplicable reason, let me know! :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonasD Posted December 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Hmmm these never make it over the big water inbetween. But in this time of the year I prefer Glühwein to drink. That is Red wine with cinnamon, sugar and other sweet herbs, then heated up. If we now also had snow, we could really enjoy that! But does its job also without snow.

Ritual Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 We have a similar thing in Sweden called "glögg". It's a different recipe but same idea. We also use a bit of vodka or cognac to soak the spices and burnt sugar in to better draw out the flavours. Then filter it and mix it with red wine! It's delicious!
