1. I thought that just meant "large breasts"
:shrug:

And you're probably better off just saying "ein bier, bitter" and offering a winning smile, rather than saying, "large breasts." At least, that's what I would assume.

3. Bavarian dialect/saying:
"Holz vor der Hütte" - like someone's having a stack of wood in front of their homes.

Yes, it means 'busty.'

6. I cannot figure out how to post pictures
There is a beer out there "wailing wench beer" by middleage brewery in New York with a wench on the label that personifies this saying.

12. My husband was born and raised in Germany and he says
it isn't German at all. He's a fluent, 'real' German, not an Army Brat.
