These are some random pictures from over the weekend. Posting pictures of every Schlenkerla, Spezial or Mahrs beer I drank would boring, cruel -- or both.

| Cream of Cauliflower soup and a beer at Spezial. The perfect lunch. |
One of the pubs you should visit if you have time is Der Pelikan. They always have some interesting beers and they do some good Thai food if you need a change from all that pork.

One of their standard draft beers is the Huppendorfer Vollbier from Brauerei Grasser.

| Red Curry at Der Pelikan. Very good and a nice change from Schnitzels |
They had the Fastenbock (Lenten Bock) from Brauerei zur Sonne in nearby Bischberg. They do a real nice kellerbier and their fall bock is usually very good. This one was OK, but the level of butterscotch (diacetyl) was a little to high for me.

Bamberg seems to have an abnormally high number of tourists for March. There is a summer long Gardening Exposition in Bamberg this summer, which may mean people are coming early because things are pretty booked this summer. So I took my Schlenkerla outside to the street...

| Too many tourists at Schlenkerla, so I stood outside in the cold. |
Another non-pork meal...
 |
| Chicken Breast with Bärlauch sauce at Spezial |
 |
| Das Gute Mönschambacher Lagerbier at Cafe Abseits |
 |
| The famous Schnitzel Sandwich at Cafe Abseits. Not to be missed. |
 |
| Griess Kellerbier. If you like hops you'll like this. |

Oh yes! A Grasser Huppendorfer Vollbier! It is coined as a “full beer”, a term which is also given to the immense majority of German beers. It is a deep golden beer, with a malty aroma with creamy yeast. Beer is indeed versatile enough to be paired with food, providing both complementary and contrasting taste.
