Beer expeditions in 2015 |

| There's a lot happening for me in 2015. It's starts off with a trip to Iceland two weeks from today. Of course there are not a lot of breweries in Iceland but enough to keep me busy for a few days and there are a few beer spots in Reykjavik to enjoy such as the new Skúli bar that just opened up with a nice lineup of beers. And it's 30 degrees F warmer there than it is here in the Boston area today so it will be nice to warm up for a bit. Never thought I'd say I'd be going to Iceland in January because it's too frigging cold in New England!! Then, as I think I've mentioned to you before Barry, the wife and I are taking our long awaited trip to Prague (most likely via Ireland) at the end of March. I'll know for certain the plan next week. Still waffling about whether to include some time in the west of Ireland or just fly straight into Dublin for a few days. Aer Lingus has inexpensive round trip flights to Prague from Dublin that are direct and at convenient times (110 euros last I checked). Most of our time will be spent in the city but we'll probably also include 2 or 3 days of visiting some smaller countryside places in the Czech Republic. Barry, I'll send you an email next week about the Ireland part of this once I've got it nailed down. There is a very slight chance the plans will change and we'll fly into Munich and take the train to Prague from there instead but it's not likely. So what about Franken? I'm really hoping to get there twice next year but won't know until after I get back from Prague. First target is around end of June. Then I would love to visit during Bock beer season in November perhaps. I've been sitting on a pile of Lufthansa mileage points that are just begging to be used for plane fare this year (horrible 1st world problem to have really). It partly depends on how much of my beer wanderungen my wife (or as Fred would say "She who must be obeyed") will tolerate this year. I have no intention of skipping Franken this year though. |
