Most non-Austrians will be familiar with turbo beer primarily as a drinking technique. A hole is poked in the beer can with a sharp object, the beer shoots out of the opening and has to be drunk at turbo speed. Can-poking is particularly popular at parties and has already helped one or two youngsters achieve fame and glory in their clique. But that's not what we're talking about here.
It's about the band TURBOBIER from Austria. The guys around lead singer Marco Pogo make provocative music with loud beats and loud lyrics. They classify themselves as punk and have already performed at well-known festivals and events around the world. Recently, their tour took them to Japan and China.
The big three: politics, religion and beer
The guys do a lot more than just music. Their favorite topic in all their activities is beer. Not only the name of the band is based on it, but also the founding of their own party. The band is the inventor of the beerocracy and is striving to beerocratize Austria. Beer consumption as a political issue, the free choice of beer as a basic right. The party is running in the Austrian elections with a legally valid statute and has already achieved success. The next event is the Vienna municipal elections, in which the Beer Party will of course be running.
Those who are already politically occupied can approach the band in a completely different way: The beerist religious community is a religious cult that worships beer. Religious leader Marco Pogo and his highest clerics have drawn up ten commandments that describe the rule-based consumption of beer and the behavior of good beerists. The exact number of followers of the beer-loving religion is not known, but rumor has it that every year more people are falling away from the Christian faith and converting to the true faith.
The beer becomes a cult
In addition to religion, politics and music, the band also deals with the really important things in life: beer. Of course, both the political goings-on and the religious cult already revolve around the sweet barley juice, but the first beer of their own was the crowning glory of all their work. With TurboBier, the band realized their dream of having their own beer and not only made their fans, party members and community members happy. The band beer was created in collaboration with a well-known brewery and is sold in both cans and bottles. TurboBier is not some new-fangled nonsense, but a down-to-earth, drinkable lager with a powerful 5.7% alcohol. A complete success, how could it be otherwise!
We are excited to see what these wild musicians come up with next!
