PA'S SELECTED, RECOMMENDED, BEER SITES
(More are constantly being sniffed out with the help of Alice, our friendly, neighborhood opossum)
HERE ARE ALICE'S LATEST FINDS.
I. Tegestology: that's the collecting of beer mats/coasters
Pa beat them again. Six months ago ALICE found only one reference
to tegestology, so PA wrote the following article: Beer
Coasters (November, 1996). Now ALICE has uncovered at least
one other site:
Marcel's Bier Mat Collection. 1192 coasters from ca. 30 countries.
No pictures, but citing the slogans on the mats, their shape as
well as the condition of each of his coasters. Also links for
each country represented. Marcel
The U.S. 7th Army Symphony Orchestra: Members. Only for the selected
few - those who served well in argyle socks! Symphony
(January, 1998)
A Set of References to the latest German/Austrian BOOM -
THE RADLER
Biermischgetränke: The Radler , and other brewery mixes,
listing 44 beer mixes with brewery name, name of the mix, exact
mixture, etc. In German but readily decipherable if you only speak
English. See The Radler: the bicyclist and
the beer.
Frank' s Bierforum: Ein Paradies für Bierfans. An extension
to "Biermischgetränke" above, with many other topics
and references. Forum
Steve's Bicycle-related collections: 150+ Radler labels; 100's
of breweries by name, address, etc. At first I was baffled by
the title until I re-read my article on the Radler. Where was
my mind? Bike
Für Radler gemixt. Conrad Seidl speaks about the newest boom
of the Radler, and the history of the mixed drinks with a basis
of beer. Seidl3
Jörg's Beer-page: This guy is a real collector with over
2500 beer labels from 51 countries; great listing of German beer
museums; extensive list of breweries on the web, especially German
and American. (June 1998) Bage
The following information is under serious modification, but
is much too vital for mankind, especially beer-drinkers, to delay
its introduction! ALICE will continue her conservative search!
