Vacationers in Tirol can now visit the world’s first beer baths at Starkenberg Castle near Imst.
Of course, these pools are less about recreation and more about health. The seven pools have been filled with beer byproducts — the yeast that settles at the bottom of the vats during cold storage — to tackle a wide range of skin ailments.
The beer baths are part of a new 4 000 square metre exhibit called ”The Myth of Beer”.
Visitors can learn more about the drink and the brewing process there. Beer has been brewed at Starkenberg Castle since 1810. – Sapa-DPA
