Thought I'd start a new topic on this to prevent it from getting buried in the discussion below of whether German brewers should ever try anything NEW or not... Fred has developed some very nice googlemaps based on county or Landkreis: < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Ansbach > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Aschaffenburg > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Bad%20Kissingen > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Bamberg > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Bayreuth > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Coburg > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Erlangen > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Forchheim > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=F%FCrth > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Hassberge > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Hof > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Kitzingen > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Kronach > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Kulmbach > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Lichtenfels > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Main-Spessart > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Main-Tauber > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Miltenberg > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Neustadt/Aisch > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=N%FCrnberg > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Rh%F6n-Grabfeld > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Roth > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Schwabach > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Schw%E4bisch-Hall > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Schweinfurt > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Wunsiedel > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=Weissenburg-Gunzenhausen > < http://www.franconiabeerguide.com/map.asp?Region=W%FCrzburg > AFAIK, larger versions are all accessible by changing "map.asp?" to "map_big.asp?" In addition to whatever map resources might be available on the internet, I've used r8beer's newish mapping, though I won't confirm how comprehensive it is. < http://www.ratebeer.com/map/ > (You have to zoom around to wherever in the world you want to go.) And there is the old bierkeller.by, now bierfranken.eu, which has a very comprehensive listing of breweries and bier gardens < http://www.bierfranken.eu/biergaerten.php > clickable by region and then name, though IMO their interactive map ain't the greatest. These, in combination with Mike's mention of the vgn.de and < http://www.haltestellen-suche.de/ > should get one around pretty well. We seem to hammer this out from time to time, maybe Fred should write a script to start a new thread automatically whenever the old one drops off the board? ;) And especially for Barry and horribly off-topic, guess which pub I was in last Wednesday: < http://www.flickr.com/photos/13211556@N08/6849914722/in/photostream/ > The Bitter was so off that I couldn't bring myself to try the other two. Like the old place though. Clue: it was in Manchester, and those were the only three beer engines. Greatest thing about Pudsey is the Leeds CAMRA Beer Fest. < http://www.flickr.com/photos/13211556@N08/6849928032/in/photostream > That's the largest of the three bars, though you can't even see the end of it. I forgot to count the pumps. Oh, Fred, please delete the previous errant post!
