From Christmas recently in Bamberg, Germany. I discovered this cool, automated beer shop with a great selection of Franconian beers. Some from larger well -known breweries and some from smaller lesser-known ones. The best surprise was 10 seasonal Bockbiers and mostly Hellerbocks...one of my favorite and illusive styles rarely seen outside this region. As you can imagine, I stocked up. Note: You need a European I.D. to use these vending machines. This is located near Brewery Fässla. Join us next
