6 parts are made. http://www.fernsehserien.de/bier-on-tour/episodenguide They call it "1. Staffel", so maybe they will produce more depending on the success. The dates of the show on TV: http://www.wunschliste.de/serie/bier-on-tour Before the production there was a casting with other "famous" beer experts from Germany and Austria, but Conrad Seidl has won this casting. He is a "Rampensau" (ramp pig?). In the part "Bier & Religion" they visit the new trappiste brewery Engelszell in Austria. The part "Innviertel" of Austria is very similar to Bavaria. Until 1779 the region war part of Bavaria and had the name "Innbayern". So the slang, the beer culture, the historical architecture etc. is similar to Bavaria. This is the part of Austria where Adolf Hitler was born (Braunau). In the part "Die Bierfreaks" they visit the both sisters from the brewery Meinel in Hof. They taste the "HolladieWaldfee". In the part "Bier and Kunst" You can see the production of stone beer.
