Mahr's to Brew in London?

That brings a tear to me' eye, Bas!

My conversations with Herrn Michel lead me to believe he's quite interested in the new directions brewing is going in Europe these days, whereas just a few years before, when I first ever spoke to him, he said he wasn't interested in any other breweries' beer, even in Franconia. And he does seem to have an interest in England.

As such, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he just wants a new challenge, to bring proper lager (relatively speaking, keg vs barrel) to a new audience. Yes, it's a business, but is capitalism necessarily evil?

(Obviously I'm biased, having grown to like the guy, if not his beer very much. I didn't use to like either!)

We could bemoan cheap airline prices and AirBnB ruining European tourism too. See the "TOURIST GO HOME!" movements in places like Barcelona and Venice. And the ever-increasing love of tourists in Bamberg.

Meh, more muck-raking. Don't respond if it's not worth it!
