Paul Harrops' site	Paul Harrop's superb site which gives details of breweries in Gernany, Austria and more besides.	Essential viewing before any trip!
Rick Pickup's Quaffale	Rick Pickup's excellent UK brewery website which will tell you all you want to know about any UK brewery - guaranteed!	The best UK beer website for gen.
Ratebeer	American site which enables you to scoop your beers on a web-based system. Good for searching for that elusive beer you had in Croatia...	The massive database of beers and breweries can be very useful.
Maxbeer	Italian beer gen site, pretty good.
Fässla, Bamberg	THE place to stay in Bamberg !	Bookable online.
Ron Pattinson's Euro Beer Guide	Ron's superb European beer drinking site which puts all others in the shade.	If you want beer gen about a city, chances are it'll be here.
Argentinian Breweries	Think there's "nothing to eat in the Argentine but corned beef and cheap red wine?" think again...	It surprised me!
Czech beer gen	Top site with all the Czech brewery gen.	An English section too!
Cantillon	The ultimate (for some) Lambic brewery.
French beer map	Useful beer and brewery site.
Ohhh my Head...	A beer scooper "posse" from Sweden's site, hats off to them as they've tried a load of top beers from all over the world...Outside of the UK, Per Samuelsson must be the top man!	It's not just the English!
Suffolk Scooper's site	Rob Gooding's scooping site.
Microbirrifico	Superb Italian micro brewery site, lots of gen (in Italian) but click on the regions of the map to the left for lists of the brewpubs and micros.	To quote Montgomery Burns - "Excellent"!
