Bottle() w/ Beaker Middleware?

How do you use bottle subapps with beaker Sessions?

bottlepy.org shows examples for both:

Sub-apps http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/tutorial.html#plugins-and-sub-applications

Sessions http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/recipes.html#keeping-track-of-sessions

Combined

from bottle import Bottle
from beaker.middleware import SessionMiddleware

session_opts = {
    'session.type': 'file',
    'session.cookie_expires': 300,
    'session.data_dir': './data',
    'session.auto': True
}

app = Bottle()
app = SessionMiddleware(app, session_opts)

@app.route('/')
def hello():
    return 'Hello World'

app.run()

This kicks out the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "example.py", line 14, in <module>
 @app.route('/')
 AttributeError: 'SessionMiddleware' object has no attribute 'route'
