"Despite Franken being my favorite place on Mother Earth to drink beer, my comments on the predominantly sub-par quality still stands. "

Oddly enough after perusing many of the reviews that you've written about Franconian beers I've also drank your reviews are not really much different than my own personal experience with a few exceptions like Holzlein in Lohndorf.  But then again in that case you reviewed from the bottle whereas my experience is direct at the brewery three times and once gravity poured at a pub in Bamberg on Unter Sandstrasse.   But overall I find your reviews not far of from my opinions in general including your more negative reviews are also in most cases beers I did not like.

Yet we have come to two very different conclusions about the overall state of brewing in Franconia.  Interesting.
