A German Beer Trail

Folks,
Today a great article was published by the New York Times Travel section. Evan Rail, a frequent contributor to the travel section, has just returned from a Beer Odyssey in Germany.

The article is called "A German Beer Trail" and contains beautiful descriptions of some of the more esoteric forms of Beer from the old country. He goes to Berlin, (not very well known for beer), and Cologne (specifically known for great beer), as well as several other areas in Germany.

His chronicles of the manner in which they server the beer, from sometimes using green syrup, to other times being lambasted by traditionally cranky waiters, is a fun read. Make sure to have some good old German beer on hand though, this will definitely make you thirst for another glass.
