For beer lovers this is one of only a few places in the world where they can truly, literally, immerse themselves in beer. At the Austrian Starkenberger resort they offer a complete beer-centered experience with beer trivia, beer history and of course, beer drinking.

However, the most unique element of the resort is the "world’s only beer-swimming-pools," seven 13 foot pools of warm beer, each containing some 42,000 pints where one can sit and bathe and relax fully immersed in beer. Rich in vitamins and calcium it is said that sitting in the beer is good for the skin, and helps cure open wounds and psoriasis.

Drinking from the pool is ill advised.

    OMG, I would SO love to do this - WOO HOO!!! I've actually been in a dunk tank (fully clothed) filled with beer and enjoyed the experience, but bathing in beer at a resort is paradise!!!
