Yes, it's not at all simple, and I can't believe my fantastic treatise on all this from less than a month ago has already been forgotten. Or ignored again.

Of course I was teasing Uncle Jimbo above, of course there's no distinct German spelling variant of "Maine".

It's either "Franconian beer" or "fränkisches Bier", never, ever, in any case, "Franken beer". (Except in Barryese.)
