Marketing - Advertising / Public Relations | | German term or phrase: bierig | "Bieriges" Golfvergnügen am XY Golfplatz
Ich übersetze regelmäßig Presseaussendungen eines internationalen Bierkonzern und immer wieder kommen Wortspiele mit bierig vor (vielleicht weil's so ähnlich klingt wie bärig). Bisher fand ich immer eine Lösung, aber diesmal geht's um eine Überschrift, und mir will nichts einfallen, das nicht umständlich lang ist.
Ach ja, in diesem Fall war der Bierbrauer der Sponsor eines VIP Golfturniers |

Birdies and Beer!

PS: just saw some Google typos talking of \"bierdies\" which might be an excellent pun in German language. It could also work in English, although to a lesser extent: i.e. BEERDIES. Thus the title might be
\"BEERDIE FUN!\" |
