Authenticating your Backyard Biergarten with Outdoor Signs

I really don’t know if “German themed” outdoor signs (or decor plaques) actually authenticates your Backyard Biergarten – but I do know it can surely validate it’s ambiance by giving it yet another visual stimulate. 

Today a growing number of homeowners of German Heritage are enhancing their outdoor living space by turning their backyards into Biergartens (it’s just not about beer either) as a cheerful gathering spot designed for comfort, relaxing, entertaining, fellowship and coziness.

German Restaurants and upstart prototype commercial Biergartens across the USA are doing the exact same thing. 

The Germans have a word for that “homey” goodwill feeling – it’s called Gemütlichkeit. 

By creating your own Backyard Biergarten, you have the freedom to accentuate it in a variety of ways from grills to beautiful floral gardens, ponds, gnomes, patio umbrellas, flags, custom made signs and even a variety of German themed birdhauses. 

I’ll get to each of these items in upcoming blog post. 

A well thought out Backyard Biergarten can become a real conversation piece as it showcases your proud German Heritage to family members, neighbors and all visitors. 

Signs are a must to add to the ambiance of your Biergarten. You can now purchase several of theses German themed outdoor signs or decor plaques online from select craftsmen within the USA as they are busily creating and getting them on their respective websites to market. I know for a fact that the demand is high because of its German heritage related.

As a fun alternative to purchase these signs, it’s also quite fun to actually create, build and paint your own sign(s) with family and friends. 

Most certainly you would want to create colorful signs that would read like: 

• Biergarten
• Willkommen
• Gemütlichkeit Gardens
• Gnome Sweet Home
• Oktoberfest
• Free Bier Tomorrow
• Got A Little German In You?
• Prost 

This is to just show you a few examples that you can purchase outright mostly already pre-made, or you can easily create yourself. 

There are craftsman sign makers out there that will allow you also to “personalize” your signs as well to create something personally unique like: 

• Brian’s Biergarten
• Willkommen to our Haus
• Hingst Haus estbl.1990 

Of course you can find all sorts of German Beer/Bier and Oktoberfest themed signs, plaques, posters and simple cut-outs online as well with many of them made out of tin, metal, wood or plastic.  

Biergarten Accessories is a good place to start looking for signs and pretty much anything else Biergarten related as new items are being added weekly. 

What’s in a sign? 

It’s all about creating German Heritage Ambiance for all to enjoy isn’t it?
 

Prost!
