I stumbled across this blog called the Bier Traveller. Last October, the writer sampled the brews of Erlangen, Bamberg, Nuremberg, and Buttenheim. I confess, though Erlangen and Nuremberg were my stomping grounds, I have never been to Buttenheim (where Levi Strauss was born). It sounds like I missed something.
