I am currently visiting some family in Munich Germany and it seems like ice just is not as popular. Is this a cultural thing? Is it throughout most of Europe?

The US is the only country where they fill the glass with ice, to the top, and then pour the drink into the small space that remains. In Europe, you might get 2 or 3 cubes. Or none. Although European branches of US-based chains, such as McDonalds, do it the US way because ice is cheaper than drink.
