Starkenberger Beer Resort

I didn’t have much to add to my Christmas list this year, but now I know exactly what I want.  A trip to the Starkenberger Beer Resort.

Starkenberger offers beer drinking of course, but their most unique feature is their collection of beer-filled swimming pools.  The resort has seven heated beer pools where you can swim, or just sit and relax in the beer.  Some say that beer is good for the skin and immersing yourself in the pools is therapeutic.  I think it would just make me thirsty.

On their site, you can sign up for 2 hours of swim time for 135 Euros.  If you want a meat tray and a bottle of beer to go along with your swim, that’s an extra 4 Euros per person.  You can have up to four people in a pool, and you adjust the beer temperature to your comfort level.  This might be the only time you want your beer warm.
