First time to Bamberg

Hey Mark, First let me say that I have not been to any Bamberg kellers, unless the outdoor drinking area at Mahrs counts as a keller? But last summer I spent a couple of days in Munich with the sole intention of drinking in some biergartens, and I did just that. And loved it! Some were huge, others small. But I enjoyed them all. If you are going to Munich to visit the biergartens, get "The Beer Drinker's Guide to Munich", fifth edition, by Larry Hawthorne. Plenty of biergartens are listed, including info on what beers are served, how many seats, and hours of operation, etc. He also lists directions for using public transport to get to the gartens. http://www.beerdrinkersguide.com/ And if you are going to buy the "Good Beer Guide Germany", consider the following link....free shipping to the US, with a current price of 11.81 Euros, about $16.00 (I haven't seen it cheaper anywhere). http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/WEBSITE/WWW/WEBPAGES/search.php?key=good%20beer%20guide%20germany&by=title
