You can swim and swallow in these pools...
June 02 2005 at 03:15PM Starkenberger - An Austrian holiday resort is offering guests the chance to swim in a pool containing 42 000 litres of beer.
The Starkenber Beer Myth resort - located in and around the medieval castle of Starkenberger in Austria's Tyrol region - has filled seven four-metre-wide pools with beer.
The management claims that beer baths heal various skin diseases.
However, some guests are said to have enjoyed drinking their favourite brew while swimming in the pools.
Manager Markus Amann, 23, said: "I would rather swim than swallow, as we serve enough of a cold, fresh tapped beer on the bars next to the pools." - Ananova.com
