Model kept on as St. Pauli Girl due to bodacious beer knowledge

Stpauli

Mark your calendars, folks. History is being made. Never before has the same model been chosen as the St. Pauli Girl for two years in a row. But now Katarina Van Derham has taken that honor. According to a rep from Crown Imports, owner of the brand, this was a fairly easy decision: "Katarina is extremely knowledgeable about beer, and has even received training from the Siebel Institute of Beer Technology. She’s also an actress and model, having appeared on Entourage, CSI: and Monk." For those who think all things are now settled, don’t be lulled into a false sense of security. There’s still the matter of the official poster. The brand is putting up two posters (click the images above to enlarge) and asking people to choose which is best. Damn you, Crown Imports! When can we finally put this matter to rest?
