City of Liquid Gold

Whoever came up with the catchphrase Paris is always a good idea was obviously not into beer, alchemy and the absurd.

And here is more, accidentally encountered evidence to the thesis that Budapest is the praguest city that is not Prague. Ferdinánd Monarchia Sörház is neatly tucked onto the corner of Aradi and Szív streets and feels like the good soldier  Švejk will rumble in any minute. The beer is limited to Ferdinand varieties but is absolutely excellent in all its shades (blonde, red, brown) and quite amazingly doesn't lead to a bad hangover even if consumed in large quantities.
