Personally, if you're on vacation it's always time to drink. "Vacation" is excuse enough already. So is "weekend".

Went to a German restaurant in Durham today with about three dozen German beers. Naturally, one was part of my lunch.

A Wurzburger Hofbrau. Pretty good stuff, especially as pilsners are very hit or miss with me.

Presently in Porto, Portugal, there was absolutely no resistance for a couple of Super Bocks to go with the Sardinhas Grelhadas (Grilled Sardines)

I am currently at IC Da Nang. At brunch the tables have signs saying "Without champagne brunch is just another breakfast." It is both vacation AND weekend, so I downed a bottle of Veuve Clicquot.

I'd also like to go for lunch with three dozen German beers. Or Belgian, for that matter. But don't expect me to work the afternoon
