43%

Americans confronted with European culture is always a laugh. And tonight was no exception.

Picture this: an American forced to try "Kirsch", a schnapps which taste like shite but is good for digestion. 43% alcohol. When offered a second round American guy said "I only drink 42% or less".

Swiss girl, the hostess, turned out to be resourceful. A minute later she presented us with another bottle of schnapps. 42%. Only time I've seen this guy speechless. And even more so after he had to drink the 42%...male pride. Gets them every time :)
PS. Sorry about the quality of the pic. It's either the telephone or somebody's trouble to focus :)
