Hey beer people
Noticed a sign in downtown Atlanta (at Baker & Peachtree) for a Paulaner brewpub to open summer 2004. How many of these are there? What do you think of them? It didn't look like they had started working on the building so I wonder what the chances are of it opening on time? -- Joe Morris Live music in Atlanta http://jolomo.net/atlanta/shows.html |

There's one in Munich (duh), a couple in China, one in Singapore, and one in Cape Town, South Africa. The one in Munich is quite nice. Who'd a thought it ? ;o) Such "typical" outlets very often feel phoney when not in their region of origin. -- Warning : you may encounter French language beyond this point.

Hey beer people Noticed a sign in downtown Atlanta (at Baker & Peachtree) for a Paulaner brewpub to open summer 2004. How many of these are there? What do you think of them? Haven't seen any Paulaner pubs in the States. They have at least two of what we'd call in the States brewpubs in Munich - one on Kapuzinerplatz and one am Nockherberg, where the new Salvatorkeller is located. Both brew an unfiltered kellerbier that is pretty much orgasmically good. If they're brewing anything like that in the States, and it's of the same quality, bow down and thank whatever deity is convenient. -Steve |

I posted the link to a newspaper article when it was announced back in October. Here it is again: http://www.ajc.com/today/content/epa...e31ea0013.html The article will explain more about it than I can. I for one am looking forward to the German food as well as the beers! Sean |

m... What is Kellerbier? Basically, it's an unfiltered lager beer. To the best of my knowledge, it's not a particular style like dunkel or stout. That said, I've always had it as more or less a Bavarian helles-type beer, but I suspect that's because I've had it in regions that tend to follow the Bavarian styles (Switzerland, Austria and, well, Bavaria). The Paulaner stuff is painfully fresh, incredibly flavorful and has a delightful mouthfeel. It's very easy to sit drinking them all night. -Steve |

"Derek Taylor" wrote in message om... In the South, well, most people seem content drinking 50 cent pitchers of Natural Light or Milwaukee's Best. Seems only reasonable, Milwaukee being in the South and all. Speaking of Southerners loving that cheap beer, I am always amused when I hear a local club around me advertise there "Drinkin' with Lincoln" night. On a specific night a pitcher of beer is only a penny. Anyone wanna make a bet on what brand of beer it is they serve on that night? HINT: It is one of the two I mentioned above.

The one time I was at a Paulaner joint (sorry, forget which, maybe "Im-something"? Sorry, am into 8th or more beer of the night at the moment) they were out of Kellerbier. I figured it would be along the lines of a FRESH, lively version of the St. Georgen Braeu Kellerbier we get (got?) here in Orygun in bottles: Dark. What you describe could be "U" lager at Spezial(?) in Bamberg: Unfiltered spritzy, lively, delectible...to DIE FOR lager. Yes/no? Eh, hope to make it back to Barvaria someday to seek out the various other offerings along these lines. That'd suck. |

These cities seem to have a real passion about good beer. Boston? With all the brewpubs they're putting out of business lately? New York? Them johnny-come-latelies of the US beer scene? How about Baltimore, or Pittsburgh, or Philly, where people have been digging microbrewed lagers for years!
