I had countless plastic cups of this beer at the World Cup in 2006 in the main plaza in the alt stadt of Koln. How do you rate a beer that you guzzled in the 90 degree heat, that was the first stop of seeing three knock-out round matches. I imagine my first of these was whilst watching Lukas Poldolski score 2 on the big screen against Sweden. Later that night I would have been enjoying this beer during the stunner from Argentina against Mexico during extra time - the goal of the tourney. The next night, I am certain this was in my hand when Beckham scored against Ecuador before the downpour started and we ran to an indoor bar for the last 30 minutes. And I certainly had one of these next to me whilst playing Babyfoot in the plaza against some strangers. All great memories lead to an inflated score. But I do recall it being refreshing and perfect during all of these matches.
