One of the coolest things about beergardens in Germany is, that equality is instantly achieved as soon as people sit down. All 'social barriers' that might exist in daily life no longer exist. Professors sit next to construction workers, bank managers sit next to punks, priests sit next to anarchic atheists. As soon as one sits down, ones role in society is no longer of any importance. It's like a unwritten rule that the vast majority of people subscribe to. All people are suddenly stripped down to one common denominator: a person that wants to enjoy a delicious cold beer in a nice environment. It's a very beautiful and healthy tradition🤗🍻

Bavaria is like Texas for the U.S. They want to be independent, do their own thing, and are the place where all the stereotypes come from. As a german, I hate that a lot of visitors only go to Bavaria and call it a german experience, and that they are so traditional. But that is just a very small part of german tradition, every region has their own and is very different from Bavaria.

Even it is not whole Bavaria, Franken (Franconia) takes up a huge part of Bavaria and is different. It's like the middle between Oberbayern and the Rest of Germany.

I have family in Badem-Würtemberg (the neighbouring state), and even we think that Bavaria is sort of a stereotype. That's probably the reason that Bayern (Bavaria) is the only German state with its own English name - they do make an impact.

@Kollektivable 11 ай бұрын

U forget that the other 15 parts of Germany would love to see Bavaria go😅 I think they got so much hate just cause of their politicians and the damn arrogantly behavior, and the BAVARIA IS THE BEST stuff. Almost like the American politicians 😂 Oh and the north of Germany is the best part, Hamburg is the the best city and with St. Pauli we have the best Football Club. Just a few examples.

@@BastianNorW I think Saxony still wants to have its say, even though the name comes from Sachsen. Likewise, Bavaria comes from the same word as Bayer: Bajuware In fact, not a single German state really has its very own English name. Some are just slightly adapted. The only ones that are not are Berlin, Bremen, Hamburg, Baden-Württemberg, Brandenburg and Schleswig-Holstein.

I can understand that people who live in other regions of Germany get annoyed when tourists from all over the world still generalise Germany as Bavaria and its customs. On the other hand, as a South German, I have to say that Bavaria is not the problem here. After the occupation, Bavaria is simply still good at selling itself, and if this bothers the people of other federal states, they should (want to) do the same in all sorts of areas. This means not only promoting themselves and their own customs/traditions within Germany, but also abroad. German states could also engage in more cultural exchanges with, for example, descendants of German immigrants to the USA who came from their regions and still speak a German language.

Hi JP :) I have a recommendation: Have you seen the latest video by Uyen Ninh about German stereotypes? She is one of the most famous KZbinrs in Germany right now (mainly through funny YT Shorts about living in Germany) and she is extremely loved by Germans. I strongly recommend to react to her video in which she also has a discussion with her german boyfriend (she is from Vietnam and has been living in Germany for a few years) :)

In Bavaria a hochdeutsch dialect is spoken, the standard hochdeutsch (vs. the dialect) is the official language of Germany propagated by Martin Luther's translation of the bible for the common folk. In the North there exists an actual different, but related language (it is not only a dialect): Plattdeutsch, called Low German (due to the altitude, where it was mostly spoken then). Plattdeutsch is more similar to Frisian, English and Dutch than to High German.

Haha just my thought. They would not like to sit in an empty beer garden with maybe a rough wind and 20°F (that was the temperature only half a week ago in my place in Northern Bavaria), Chestnut trees without leaves and the threat of some dark clouds which could every second start gifting them with some hail! Even at the moment, with 33,8°F and sunshine it would probably not be something to enjoy! :)

No, Bavaria haven't her own language. It is her own dialect in the region. We Germans can speak high German. Low german(Plattdeutsch) is a different language here in northern Germany.

In my 450-inhabitants "large" village, there is an annual fire station party where people from all over the region come and have a very small version of what you in the USA would call an "Oktoberfest". Part of the program there is a competition in "Masskrugstemmen" (=beer mug lifting). The athletes stand, holding a full beer mug (yes, full of beer, of course) on the fully stretched arm. The hand goes through between two horizontal ropes, they are not allowed to either bend their arm or touch either of those lines. The last person not to touch the lower line wins. There are prizes (and of course every "athlete" is allowed to drink the beer from their mug).

I love your takes on Europe. And as half German half Norwegian, i think it's really interesting to see your reactions to Germany. But I'd love to see your reaction to some Scandinavian countries (Norway, Sweden, Denmark). Scandinavia is probably more likely to remind you of states like Minnesota and Wisconsin, but with the 'Bernie Sanders dream of the US'.

Hello Joel and pal. Almost like sitting by the river in York and having a beer? No rowing involved though. I am glad to say, despite being from Yorkshire, I watched without subtitles, but then it was aimed at folk learning German. Still, it was forty years since I took German at school.

The whole workout/weightlifting aspect of those giant mugs also gets reflected in a common German euphemism for drinking beer: "einarmiges Reißen", the "one-handed snatch"

Very good and funny Video. Next time when you come to Munich, go to the Tegernseer Braustueberl or the Hirschgarten Beergarden. If you have time, go to the Kloster Andechs Brauerei in the Town Andechs. You can use the S Bahn Number S 5 from Munich, Direction Herrsching to go there. You will need around 1 hour. They are brewing Beer at the Monastery for around 400 years. But be warned, that Beers is very strong. It would be better if you looking for a Guesthouse there... 😉 Hopefully we can see a Video from you. Enjoy it. Greetings from Bavaria. 👍 Andy

95 percent of the biergarten I have been to were in Bayern, where the weather is more conducive to outdoor eating for at least seven months in the year. The better ones have live music, at least at weekends and on holidays. I prefer to drink local wines rather than beer, as I don't enjoy the aftermath of a lot of gassy drinks. My favourite biergarten offers barbequed fresh fish from the lake as an option too. 😋

@Rick2010100 11 ай бұрын

There is one language in Germany (German) but there are many local dialects. In some regions the dialect mixes more into the standard German (Bavaria and Saxony) and in other regions the people only speak dialect among people were they knew the other can also speak the dialect. A few actually can't speak standard German, but they are called Hinterweltler (hillbillies).

I love Beer Gardens in Germany, I also really like the variety of Beer Gardens in England. The English ones tend to vary more, I think - Big open commons, smaller wild grass, flowers etc and then city ones with some grass or no grass.

Bavaria "This is the point where so much tradition exists" History lesson incoming: The bavarian duke actually needed beer brewers from Einbeck to tell the people in Munich how to brew a good tasting beer. (I'm not kidding). ^^ btw: Einbecker Brauherren Pils is still one of the best beers money can buy. ;)

Bavaria is such a part of Germany and they live their own traditions, which usually don't have much to do with the rest of Germany. In addition, the Bavarians do not speak their own language but rather a dialect. Northern Germany actually has its own language.

Normally in Germany a small Beer is 0.3L and a big Beer is 0-5L. Judst in Bavaria its different. ( Bavaria is extra " special " ) 🙂

Eyyyyyyyyy, hold on boys, what you mean we talk in Bavaria, what? Swahili??? *lol* btw... that´s a country at the Horn of Africa. But back to the facts... Somebody talk with a regional slang and when you visit a village in the outback, you dont understand some specials words. But that´s we all have in Europe. Dont forget, Austrian also speek german and in switzerland you have a german, an italien, a france and "hard old" swiss slang. It depends also how near you life at "neighbours". So German Language have a few words they are regional, but 99,9% is the same, only with more or less slang. Greetings from Munich.
