Weinfest in "Zeil am Main"

Dackelone · 08-01-2010, 08:30 PM

Fränkischen Weinfest im Zeil am Sand, near Bamberg.

I thought I would give you guys a taste of Northern, Bavaria. This area that I live in. It is called OberFranken. The Bamberg area is mainly known for their many (200 plus!) beer breweries… but they also “grow and bottle” a fair amount of wine here too. Fränkische qualitate wein!

Here are a few pics I took today. Almost every town in Germany has these nice fests throughout the year. In the fall lots of wine fests are common. Enjoy.

The pretzel man and his wife!

A small horn…

Yummy Bratwuerst!

It is always a good time when the ladies jump up on the tables!

Even the “little ones” get in on the action…

I still prefer a good German Bier though!

Geez, I miss Germany this time of year. Erlangen has a great fest (Kirchweih?) and then there's the big fest in Nürnberg. Always a great time.

That looks fun. Thinking of it, I should ban the OP for writing 'Bravaria'.

Hey guys - I fixed my Bavaria misspelling!

Dackelone · 11-28-2016, 12:48 PM

a "bump" for an old thread.

Every mid summer(late Sept) the little village of "Zeil am Main"(near Bamberg & Schweinfurt) holds a little Weinfest in the center of the town. It's not to be missed!!

M_Six · 11-28-2016, 02:06 PM

Ah, new wine (fizzy and cloudy) and onion bread (like pizza without the tomato sauce.)

Good stuff as long as you don't overdo either one.

Looks fun!! Miss Germany.
