This is pretty hilarious and awesome. Apparently a train taking soccer fans to Hamburg stopped for nearly a half hour because the beer tap malfunctioned.

Federal police said Monday that the beer tap failed aboard a special train carrying Bayer Leverkusen fans to Hamburg on Saturday. The fault was discovered half an hour into the journey.

"In order not to endanger the good mood" of the passengers, railway officials halted the train in Wuppertal for 25 minutes and had a replacement part delivered by taxi, a police statement said. It added that there was no trouble among the fans.

Those Germans have got their priorities straight.
