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."

I'm having some extremely bad ideas generated by this.


But aside from those, it's gotta be interesting.

What ever you do, don't drink the warm beer.

I think I'm gonna be sick. Now if it said drinking beer in a warm bath was good for you I'd understand that one.

How can you tell if it's normal foam or a submarine fart?

Alright, I can probably drink a pool full of beer, but swim in it, I don't think so.

I've known people that it didn't matter whether or not they were drinking it, the end result would be the same.
So the pool just cuts a few steps out of the equation.
*snicker*

'Course, then there was the lady who drank her beer through a straw... (??)

Avoid the clumpy foam.

Six queers were spending a fabulouth evening at the local hot tob, when all of a sudden a big wad of you-know-what floated up to the already foamy surface. The chief fag, in his meanest angry voice said "WHO FARTED?"

Another bad idea: high test liqour, 151 proof in a hot tub.
Would do wonders for people with acne problems, or seasonal acne breakouts..
(Would also burn like a ^#@$!!*)
