Nice video, as always! But as a German cocktail nerd I have to point out that only the Pepe was created in Bavaria (Munich). The first two drinks have been created in Hamburg and Berlin. And the drink by Goncalo de Sousa Monteiro is called "Beuser and Angus Special", not "Bowser". Nevertheless it's an awesome cocktail.
I don't get why people are afraid of egg whites. When I was a kid my grandma used to make me Gogol-Mogol which is beaten raw egg (yolk and all) with sugar. I've never once had Salmonella. So, I guess, man up, people 😊
It's the same idea as the fear of MSG in Chinese food. People hear one person say that it's harmful and they just endlessly parrot that without doing their own research. Basically it's lazy stupidity.
Most of us weren't raised on raw foods. We were taught to fear undercooked foods and bacteria. I had to learn it on my own. But, anyone who saw Rocky should know it's safe to eat raw pasteurized eggs. It's not about manning up, it's about educating yourself.
@@agustinhazim1835 Also a lot of the safety issues which caused the need for that fear have largely been legislated out. Also thanks to the consolidation of food producers, if you have lots of food producers it's harder to report issues and harder to monitor food quality. If you look at the kinds that bakers did in the 19th century to flour you can understand why people didn't trust their food providers.
On the Schumann-Thing: I think people are complex and ambivalent. One can acknowledge, that the man is a legend and a brilliant barman and also an old man with some wildly bad ideas about the world. No one needs to make excuses for that and it also doesn't discredit his work in the field. Some of the most brilliant and influencial people in history, more often then not, were horribly broken and/or flawed human beings.
I wonder how many times the creator made the Beuser and Angus each time saying "I know it sounds crazy, but it could use a bit more orange flower water" lol. Equally amazed any drink can handle that much of it!
For Beuser & Angus, we couldn't find orange blossom water, so we subbed rose water, and I think it worked quite nicely. Also, my husband used all the eggs to make spaetzel, but luckily we had a can of garbanzo beans for aquafaba.
Great episode. I'm definitely interested in finding out more about German cocktails since I'm a fan of the Gin Basil Smash. On egg whites, I'm definitely a Philistine because I use pasteurized egg whites. I've found that they work if you use a milk frother for the dry shake, and they work even better if you use a Hamilton Beach instead of shaking with ice. I know, this makes me sound like a Norm Abrams of cocktail, but it works, and the salmonella risk is zero.
Jeffrey Morganthaler has a method for his French 75 where he adds the sparkling content to the shaker, very gently, after the shake and then strains both into the glass together. Works great for that drink. Any thoughts regarding this one?
Sounds like a strange technique to me. The inside of a shaker has ridges which provide nucleation sites for co2 and I suspect it would go flat quickly. That said, I trust Mr Morganthaler and will ask him about this next time I speak with him
Damn, I wish I could pay 65-70 bucks for a bottle of Green Chartreuse! It's currently set at about 100 - 105 USD where I live but constantly out of stock all over the country. Last time it cost me $35 was about 5-6 years ago. Still gonna make that cocktail because that recipe seems yummy!
@@OnnoSlot1988 It's called Schwere Jungs. The title means roughly "Heavy boys" about the olympic bobsled team in 1952. I am not sure if there was an English release.
Your generous use of Green Chartreuse is not possible in most parts of the US. Perhaps it is readily available in LA/NY/CHI/Portland/Seattle. In Colorado, retailers get 1 or two bottles a month, unpredictably and irregularly.
At 3:10 you mention subbing Cognac for the Mandarine Napoléon. Did you mean Cognac or Brandy based orange/citrus liqueurs like PF Curaçao and Grand Marnier or straight Cognac?
Wow you don't see Napolean Liqueur use that often, now I get to use it again lol. But I think the Pepe would be the best tasting cocktail in this list!
For the Bowser and Angus Special (or Beuser & Angus Special if you're googling for it - not sure if it's also misspelled here), while you mentioned and poured 1 3/4 oz, all the measures you put on screen and in the description are way less at 1/3 oz, and the egg white is missing
If you're buying your eggs from the supermarket in the US, they're unlikely to be fresh. 7-14 days is average, but can be as much as 60 days. Check the carton.

Hey! Noticed you didn’t do a reverse dry shake for the Bowser and Angus. I see the head isn’t very prominent in the drink, so I expect it’s not a big deal - but how do you choose when to do or not do a reverse dry shake? Or is there a reason you don’t think it’s worth doing in general?
A question about using egg whites, and it's not the smell! How do you keep it from instantly curdling, especially when using citrus in the recipe? I use fresh eggs from our own chickens. So, definitely not any cheap store garbage.
I think, because he said past 9pm or 10pm, he didn’t insist on saying female bartenders aren’t as qualified as their male counterparts, but that they might get more attention from annoying drunk guys around that time. I don’t think I agree with his point saying they shouldn’t work therefore, but I certainly get his point
In the 1980’s he told playboy magazine that woman have no place in the bar past 3pm so when he made the comment in the documentary this past came back to haunt him after 50 best bars wanted to give him an icon award
I'll be making myself a Pepe this evening being as I like Tequila and Cachaca, so this sounds interesting, and I will be toasting Mr. Schuman. Enough of this politically correct. woke BS.

As a german, I never thought that there is anything like "German" or even "Bavarian" cocktails. Very interesting stuff :)
You should go in German or Bavarian Bars more often 😉

If you're worried about salmonella, pasteurized shell eggs are a thing and can be found in many US grocery stores.

Make so Jeffery Mongenthaler’s lime cordial recipe. All the qualities of Roses but fresh and delicious
Egg whites not listed in description for angus cocktail, 1.75 oz spoken but 1/3 oz chartreuse listed in description.
Diffords Guide lists this as 52.5ml Green Chartreuse & 2.5ml Orange Blossom water
The Bowser and Angus Special spec is wrong. It says 1/3 oz of Chartreuse, vs 1 3/4, also doesn't mention the egg white.
Diffords Guide lists this as 52.5ml Green Chartreuse & 2.5ml Orange Blossom water
Holy hell, I almost spat out my drink when I saw the chapter titles. Bravo.
I would have really loved to see the La Boum in this video. One of my favorites from germany 😊 especially since it's a drink by a female barkeeper 😉
What does gender have to do with anything?

That's a good question. Same is what does race have to do with anything. Or religion, or origin, or sexual preferences...

If Green Chartreuse isn’t available, mix one part Faccia Brutto Centerbe with two parts Dolin Génépy for an extremely reasonable facsimile.
Chartreuse is going for $90 now here in Phx. I'm planning on trying Truffles on the Rocks' homemade version when I run out of my last bottle

Charles Schumann was born in World War II (1941) and thus is already in his 80s. Maybe there is some deteriorating going on.

Rose´s in Germany does not contain high fructose corn syrup or added flavourings, so maybe that was one reason he did not mind using it.

After a nice hard shake, there shouldn't be any question left 😉
Curdling happens much faster at higher temps so when shaking a drink curdling shouldn’t be a problem and it won’t happen on contact
