Czech Republic-Look at each other when you drink.
In the wine field, although the highest drinkers may not be Czechs, the most disciplined ones may belong to them. Czechs generally don't persuade people to drink in bars, but they attach great importance to etiquette, for example, when drinking, they must look each other in the eye.
You don't need to be sentimental or serious, but your eyes must meet the people who clink glasses, even if it's only for a short 1 or 2 seconds.
It is said that there is a popular proverb in the Czech Republic: "If you don't look at each other's eyes when touching glasses, you will have a bad sex life for seven years." Ah, also sad ...
Ireland-take turns toasting.
Irish people are really addicted to alcohol. When they go to a bar, they will definitely drink to everyone present. Therefore, when you want to go to Ireland for a drink, be ready to be toasted by strangers at any time.
What's even more frightening is that according to the rules, you still need to pay back. After these rounds, the real man is the one who can stick to watching the ball at the end.
Ukraine-The bride's shoes can hold wine.
At the wedding in Ukraine, almost everyone's eyes will be fixed on the bride's feet. This is not hooliganism, just trying to steal the bride's shoes.
Although the bride's shoes are not made of crystal, those who steal them can drink with the bride's shoes. Don't be too busy getting excited or sick. The "thief" doesn't directly use shoes as containers, just put the glass in the bride's shoes, and then slowly drink it with the shoes.
Germany-a thousand cups don't change brides
How can you drink without Germany? Germans also brought wine culture to the wedding, playing even crazier than Ukrainians.
On the eve of the wedding, the best man and bridesmaids will "kidnap" the bride and take her to a bar. The groom will go to the bar to "rescue" the bride under the guidance of a friend, on condition that everyone is invited to have a round of wine. In many cases, the groom has to be as drunk as a fiddler before the groomsmen and bridesmaids will let him go. It seems that it is not easy to marry a German wife.
Wales–Be sure to praise Wrexham Lager.
Compared with other places, Welsh people don't have so many rules for drinking, but as the best place in Britain to brew beer, Welsh people are extremely proud of their own Wrexham lager.
Therefore, when you travel to Wales, you must order a local authentic Wrexham beer (look for the fire-breathing dragon logo) and try it. The local people will think that you are very knowledgeable and can pull into your relationship at once. If you appreciate it, it may be possible to be exempted from the bill by a hearty boss.
England-They have three different bars.
The drinking culture in England began with the choice of bars. Subdivided, there are three kinds of British bars: pub, bar and club, which have different social functions.
Pub is the favorite of old people. The environment here is not only elegant, but also the drinks are mainly red wine, fruit wine and beer with low intensity, as well as delicious meals. You can often see old people sitting in the Pub early in the morning eating and chatting with old friends.
Bar is closer to the popular definition of bar. Psychedelic lights, noisy music, whisky in an ice bucket ... You can drink with friends here after watching the ball to celebrate your victory or vent your dissatisfaction. At this time, it's a bit inappropriate if you order a glass of ordinary juice.
Relatively speaking, Club is more like a nightclub. The variety of drinks here may not be complete, even there are few seats, but the dance floor, stage and lighting equipment will make people shine.
Holland-You have to bend over to drink whiskey.
Dutch people are so fond of whisky that they all adopt different postures when drinking whisky-bowing (even some people drink beer in this way).
If you see someone bending down to drink in a bar in Holland, please don't be surprised, just bend down and drink with them.
France-Drinking leftover wine in a urinal
Drinking while getting married is a happy thing, but for a wonderful tradition unique to France, it sounds only interesting and ... disgusting.
On their wedding night, the bride and groom will play hide-and-seek with the guests. After the bride and groom hide, the guests will look for them. If they are found, the bride and groom will put all the wine left at the wedding scene in a new urinal and drink it! ! !
Sometimes, if guests make a mistake, they will add the leftover food from the wedding banquet to the wine, so that the bride and groom can drink it all at once, and it is impossible to be friends.
Russia-Never be late.
Remember not to be late when meeting a Russian friend's wine club, because according to custom, those who are late need to catch up with others' drinking rounds. Therefore, it is normal for people who are often late to go to the wine table and drink three or four glasses of hard liquor in a row.
Poland-a boring look at the truth
Since you have chosen to drink a toast, you should drink it to the end in one breath. If there is anything left in the glass after the toast, it can only show that the friendship is not deep enough. Therefore, for friends who are new to Polish bars, it is better to start with mild vodka.
Georgia-Toast is like drinking water.
Drinking with Georgians may be the most polite. At an ordinary evening gathering of friends, toasts may occur 20-30 times.
It seems that getting together in Georgia will exercise not only alcohol, but also knees.
Belgium-chocolate with wine, wood and wood
Belgians have a unique preference for chocolate. In addition to various flavors of alcoholic chocolate, some serious addicts even drink while eating chocolate.
In fact, there is no need to make a fuss, which is as common as bragging after drinking. As a tourist, what you need to do is to understand these customs and even try to integrate into this culture. I hope I can go to the bar to experience it next time I travel to Europe.
