    Australian and I have visited a Kneipe / Bar which was next door to a market. So I saw many a worker having a bier. Some did get drunk, others would be there and have maybe 2 biers over a few hours, just talking and or playing those electronic game machines on the wall. Obviously as a tourist yes I enjoyed some beer and talking at times to locals, Orkus observing what was going on.
