I was very happy to receive a book in the mail just a few days before Christmas, a bit too late for a review to help the holiday sales.
The Berlin beer scene has seen much the same as in London, an explosion in the number of micro breweries, beer bars with an interesting range of brews and beer shops.
I have tried to document some of this on my blog over the last decade, but a comprehensive guide was really needed. And that is what we’ve got.
Markus Raupach and Bastian Böttner has written a bilingual guide to breweries, beer gardens, brew pubs and beer culture in Berlin. The German text is longer, but the information in English is likely to be what you need to navigate.
There are 24 breweries in Berlin (including Potsdam) now, so a weekend is not enough to cover them all. At least you have a tool to do your planning.
Lots of nice color photos. Published by GuideMedia Verlag Bamberg. Be sure to get one before you go!
