There are many stereotypes about Germans and their affinity for alcohol - and particularly for their world-famous beer. But is anything about their drinking habits changing? You could be surprised!
In this episode of Meet the Germans, Shabnam takes a deep dive into Germany’s drinking culture. Having moved to the country from India in 2017, Shabnam has meanwhile discovered various German drinking rituals. But there are still a few drinks she hasn’t tried yet. In this episode, she bravely tests a selection of classic German liquors.
