he got a pint of German beer (don't remember the type, but it was wheat)
It was Franziskanner (sp?) Weiss beer. Don't forget the lemon. As mentioned earlier, Germany has Spaten Optimator. It is similar to Guinness. Not exact, but the best comparison I could come up with.
As for drinking around the world, I am a huge fan. Even if a country doesn't have signature alcohol, they will have wine from California at their booth around the lagoon.
When I go around the world, I choose one day to do just beer and one day for wine (if I have time I'll assign one day to red and one to white).
I have discovered, though, to my wallet's joy, that I do not enjoy most German, Italian, and French wines available at Epcot. Big fan of all the other wines though at the F&W fest. My wallet also loves the fact that anything lighter than a Sam Adams tastes like carbonated P to me. I don't care what country it is from, all yellow beers taste the same to me...yuck.
My problem with drinking is that I can handle lots of alcohol as long as it is one kind. I can not mix drinks nor have alcohol and sugar without a massive headache. So, when it comes to trying out the mixed drinks, I can really only have one a day and to be honest, the mixed drinks at WS are too weak for my taste; yummy, but too weak. I end up having to buy another shot at the UK to supplement my drink.
God bless those of you who can go from tequila to beer to wine to sake to limoncello to more beer. I would need 4 advil to make it through that.
