Now I hope the list includes one or two beers you haven't known yet. It is likely that you can find most of these German beers in countries around the globe. I have found quite a few of these during my travels in Asia, Australia and New Zealand. The United States are one of the biggest consumers, Germany exports beer to. I am sure the choice of German beer in America is much better than in Asia or Oceania.

In case you ever visit Germany, the best thing you can do is to ask in a restaurant or pub for a local beer. There are a lot of smaller breweries all over the country, which make fantastic beer that can only be found in the specific local area, where the beer is made. Many Germans prefer a local beer above all others.

Don't miss out on area specific specialty beers that are one of a kind. For example, when in Berlin you should try a "Berliner Weisse", when in Cologne ask for a "Kölsch" and when Bamberg ask for its "Rauchbier". Germany has without a doubt a beer for everyone. You just need to find your personal favorite.

Last but not least, here are a few accessories for people with a love of beer.
