so what's the score with having a beer in your seat?
Normal in German league games. There’s a beer man up and down the aisles, beer keg on his back with a nozzle. He fills the pints, they’re passed down the row and the money passed back along to him. At least that’s what the score was in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin about 6 or 7 years ago.
Not sure about the Euros situation but you can see fans with pints in their hands.
Isn’t it 0% alcohol
Is that possible?Quote:

Scotland is behind us I think. Unless it's recently changed I don't think you can buy it in the ground at all.Quote:

Yeah I went to the 2006 world cup there and I've seen Hannover play, albeit not recently. Also seen games in a few other countries and I must admit I can't picture myself with a beer at these games, unlike when I've been to Twickenham, Murrayfield etc when I have routinely drunk during the gamesQuote:

Bitburger is the official beer of Euro 24. It's on sale at all the stadia and fanzones.
According to The Sun the England v Serbia crowd were only served 2.5% Bitburger shandy but for the Denmark game it'll be back to normal with fans able to but 4.8% Bitburger Pils in the ground and to take to their seats.
You can certainly take a drink into the New Theatre but I don’t think they bring it to your seat.
Blimey. As above, even in the Bundesliga there are certain 'higher risk' games where only low alcohol beer is available. I'm tempted to say good luck with Denmark v England!Quote:
