Beer - what more can you say?

In the heart of Ostbevern, Germany, beer lovers will think they've died and gone to heaven.

Weary travelers can lay their heads to rest in a bed carved out of a 19th century historic beer barrel at the Landhotel Beverland. The barrel comes from Pott’s, a local brewery, and was in use until 1995.

There are three beer barrel-themed rooms in the hotel, and while each room sleeps four, only one of the beds is a barrel, which can be used as a single or double bed.

The room also has a 32-inch flat screen TV, DVD player, and free internet. For just 20 Euros hotel staff will serve you breakfast in bed—er, barrel. And if that wasn’t enough barrel for you, there is also a beer barrel sauna on the property that seats 12 people. Guests can use the sauna for 10 Euros.

If you have an alcoholic realtive that lives with you, and everyone else really can't stick, then why not purchase one, and place it at the end of your driveway. All you need is a draught line and tap installation, and problem solved! No more door to door sales reps calling you in the evening: a quick lifestory from your relative will quickly solve an unwanted problem; so why not kill two birds with one stone?
