    Because all of us here spend almost as much time drinking as gaming...

    Guests take a dip in beer pool
    An Austrian holiday resort is offering guests the chance to swim in a pool containing 42,000 pints of beer.
    The Starkenber Beer Myth resort located in and around the medieval castle of Starkenberger in Austria's Tyrol region has filled seven 13ft long pools with the beer.
    The management claims that beer baths heal various skin diseases.
    However, some guests are said to have enjoyed drinking their favourite brew while swimming in the pools.
    Manager Markus Amann, 23, said: "I would rather swim than swallow, as we serve enough of a cold, fresh tapped beer on the bars next to the pools."

    "what a natural way of keeping the girls away so they can think you have been drinking heavily"
    sarcasm off.

    That would suck to swallow that beer, they should make alcoholics swim in beer after hundreds of people took a dip, that would make them stop

    Won't that kill you with too much alcohol absorbed by the skin?

    I'm such a sadist :(.

    Can't wait to see the settlement they have to pay after the first drunk drowns in it.
     
  13. no different than swimming for extended periods in saltwater or anything else...the skin only allows so much absorbtion before it reaches a maximum homeostatic balance.

    a good hoppy beer would be refreshing.

    Not a good idea, with the stories about dissolving beef in coke and stuff... and A.Snow, Austria != America.
