    My favorite parts:

    For three years after, Gourmet Haus Staudt was inundated with international visitors. “There was a pilgrimage of Apple junkies from Japan and China and Germany, and they’d ask, ‘Which chair did it happen at?’ And they would take pictures in the chair,” Volker said. The beer responsible for Powell’s downfall that fateful night, Weihenstephaner Vitus — a wheat buck beer from Germany containing 7.7% alcohol by volume — also got a fair amount of publicity thanks to Powell’s final Facebook post before losing the phone: “I underestimated how good German beer is,” he wrote

    “Germans were super proud because it was Vitus, a German beer, that brought down Apple,”

    🤣
