A Traveler's Guide Beer Tourism in Munich - Paris Finch
Introduction
I remember well my first trip to Germany in 1995, and after landing at Frankfurt airport, I traveled to Heidelberg for my first hotel night. That day, in a square in Heidelberg, I had my first German beer that was drawn directly from the tap. It was a Hefe-Weise bier, with yeast particles floating throughout the glass. The beer sat in front of me like a trophy in the sunshine while a studied the setting of consuming my first German beer experience. The taste of the beer was enriching, it tasted alive, with flavors I never imagined before while drinking the golden beverage. From that point on, I may sure to sample the local beers, which were all plentiful and delightful.
My trip eventually landed me in Munich, where the town was quiet and empty in the surrounding area of my hotel. I later learned that the local football team had just won the championship and as I approached the city center, the crowds grew along with the feeling of good will and fellowship. Of course, the beer was flowing. Every beer hall, every restaurant and every corner pub were overflowing with celebration and good spirits. A that time, I understood that I had a special connection with this city, this culture, and the local population.
Later in my professional career, I came to need to travel to Munich on regular occasions for work meetings and other business. This afforded me the opportunity to learn more about the city, the culture and to know the people very well. Navigating from the airport to the S-Bahn, to the city center became an automatic function for me. In addition, I had a terrific opportunity to experience those sights and sounds of the city, all the important sites and the supporting history of this city. This included sampling the many beers and food of the Bavarian capital. This allowed me to learn much and to set my favorites of activities or food/beer and to share that with others during my visits. I became to understand that I knew much about this city, but this was all in my head, never written down. Knowing all these facts about a city and finding that tourists would consistently stop and ask me directions or suggestions. When this experience started to happen with Germans, I realized that I must walk through the city center with a look of confidence and happiness.
Circle to recent times, my oldest daughter expressed an interest in attending the next Oktoberfest and asked if I would help with guiding her and making travel arrangements. This is what brought me to document all the information contained in this book so she, her friends, and any reader can learn and then put these learning forward to better enjoy this great city.
I have traveled all around the world, to every major city and even to some back roads and jungle locations, so I have experienced and saw so much of this planet. When people ask me about where my favorite place is to travel in the world, I never hesitate. The answer is Munich, Germany. München.
