Hi Christian,

I will be there.

Ethnology:  The traditional hard liquor in Munich is called "Enzian".
It's destilled from the roots of a yellow alpine flower, Gentiana lutea,
and the taste is similar to the smell in an old library.
Only the oldest Bavarian aborigines can drink it without getting ill.
