5.0 out of 5 stars The Munich Beer Vade Mecum, November 22, 2002
By 
I have visited Munich at least a dozen of times since then the iron curtain dropped down. It is very pity that I've read this book just now. Today I already know almost the every place and beer garden described in the book. And I think, that anyone going to Munich will find this book a must if he/she wants to find the best in German beers. Now Munich is a quite popular place to visit for many Russian tourists, especially during the Octoberfest time. But even if you are not going to Munich, this is a good read. The descriptions of the beer gardens are very entertaining and correct. Recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Munich and Bavaria!, September 2, 2000
By 
Bob Dries (Millburn, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This is an absolutely terrific book, even if you're not a serious beer drinker. Everything you'll need to know about Munich and Bavaria is here; from how to ride the subway, how to greet people along the way, even how to correctly hold your stein without looking like a rookie. And what would a trip to the Hofbrauhaus be without singing? The words to the best beer drinking songs are in the back of the book! Day trips, food and beer reviews, entertainment and directions are all included. A word about beer gardens...don't be put off with the idea that they are just big parks serving beer to roudy and abusive drunks. The owners do not tolerate that kind of behavior. Beer gardens are a very civilized, cultural part of Bavaria, and they just so happen to be a lot of fun too. Ein, Zwei, Drei, g'suffa!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The only guide you need to Munich!!, January 4, 2001
By A Customer
This book came in handy when I was in Munich a few years back (I have an older edition). The rating of the beers are pretty accurate. I loved the fact it gave directions on how to get to each place. It's especially nice for those of us who don't speak German. This book is a definate must have for beer drinking travelers. :)
