How to ask for a beer in 50 different languages.

If you've ever planned on traveling or have been traveling, you've most likely come across a foreign language. It can be difficult being a foreigner in another country but we try to blend in as much as possible. When you're just walking down the streets site seeing its easy to avoid conversation and make our differences less known. That's all fine and good, but what happens once our thirst grows every stronger for that sweet golden beverage of the gods? You soon then find yourself in a local pub where nobody speaks your language. How will you get the point across?

If there is anything that we can say most of the planet has in common, it's beer. The only problem with ordering a drink in other parts of the world is you'll always look like an idiot trying to use hand gestures. If you truly want to experience a country's brew like a good beer connoisseur would, you'll need to know the proper way to ask for it. In order to help you look less like a fool and more like a local, here are 50 ways to say "One Beer please" in 50 different languages.
