Learn how to pronounce the beer here is more important than ever, even if you are having an hard time in going beyond “Servus” or “Grüss Gott”…

Never, but never say “LOWENBRAU” for that famous brand of beer!
Bräu is actually pronounced “BROY” and the whole thing – as repeated by a giant beer-frinking lion at the Oktoberfest – is “LERVENBROY”.

Ah, by the way, since you are in the city of BMW (Bayerische Motoren Werke AG), be aware not to call it “BEE-AM-DOUBLE U”… here in München that’s “BE-EM-FAU” !!
