German foreign minister Joschka Fischer once gave US Sec State Colin Powell a case of beer, and Powell reminisced at the NATO Council of Ministers: "I expressed my admiration for German flip-top beer one day, the kind with the little tops that pop off. And Joschka (Fischer) sent me a case, and I enjoyed it very much. The next time I saw him, since he's a member of the Greens Party, I gave him the empties back."
