Turns out "bierwelt" isn't what you get after one-too-many Natty Ices and a tumble down the stairs; it's German for "beer world". And, you'll be good-goddamn glad to hear that such a thing actually exists in Bavaria! Welcome to adult Disneyland: Kuchlbauer's Bierwelt.
The "world of beer", on the grounds of the Kuchlbauer Brewery in Abensberg, Germany, has the requesite beer garden, sure. But it's also got other super-neat stuff, like a craggy 115ft tower topped with a 32ft-wide gold-plated observation ball that weighs 26,455lbs. Go on -- have a beer inside.
The view from the golden orb is so great, you can see the entire (beer) world from its gilded confines.
Beer garden and golden-tipped phallus aside, a visit to Bierwelt includes a tour of the Kuchlbauer Brewery itself. Explore assorted totally-strange stuff, like this wall constructed from actual beer bottles.
The architectural vision of Bierwelt is based on some of the architect's drawings after a few beer flights too many.
