Drink in Passau
Passau has 5 breweries. Every pub or restaurant seems to be associated with one of them. The beer is delicious and cheap.
Like the rest of Germany, buying alcohol out is more expensive than buying it at the supermarket. Service has a big price tag here. The student pubs are almost as cheap as a supermarket, though.
There are a few beer gardens in Passau, and a couple that pass the "real beer garden test". That being, you can bring your own food to them regardless of whether they sell food themselves or not. Beer gardens developed because breweries used to plant trees atop their underground cellars (mostly laying a bit outside of the city) to keep them cool, and the result was a really nice atmosphere to relax with a beer in hand. Beer gardens tend to open in the spring and close in the fall as the weather cools again.
Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays are the nightlife nights. On Thursdays, you
have bar-trivia at the Irish Pub "Shamrock" where your group can win EUR60 (or up to EUR120 with the jackpot). Questions are in both English and German. "Shamrock" is owned by a Welshman, and the employees all speak English as do most of the clientele. The barmen and waitresses come from all across Europe (France, USA, Australia, Poland..) and make fascinating drinking companions.
On Thursdays, the LOOP has free champagne for girls (and guys not ashamed to drink champagne their female friends get for them). There are also a couple of Student Pubs in the area, which offer very cheap drinks, pool tables, darts etc. There are a couple of nightclubs in Passau, one in the city which is busy from late on Wednesdays and weekends.
