| Thinking about the Franconian beer culture, one tends not to regard towns like Achaffenburg as Franconian (it is quite near Frankfurt, so it could be Hessen-like). Whilst there are mainly three regions in Franconia: Oberfranken (Upper Franconia), Mittelfranken (Middle Franconia) and Unterfranken (Lower Franconia), I seem to recognise another definition of a region in Franken (unlike one would expect, Mittelfranken is not situated between Oberfranken and Unterfranken). However, what I feel as the heartland of Franken (more specifically the heart of the Franconian Beer Culture) is more or less the part of Franconia roughly inside the polygon formed by Lichtenfels, Zeil/Main, Schlüsselfeld, Erlangen, Bayreuth and Kulmbach. Let's define this as: BierFranken! |
