We have. Find My Seidla is your honest guide to Franconian beer cellars, hidden breweries, brewery hiking trails, and everything that makes this region the most extraordinary beer destination on Earth.
Most Franconia guides show you three breweries. We show you the whole picture.
Upper Franconia (Oberfranken) has more breweries per capita than any other region in the world. Behind that statistic lie centuries of brewing history, unique styles that barely exist elsewhere — and beer cellars worth hiking a hill for.
Find My Seidla isn't a tourism portal. We write what we'd want to read ourselves: Which cellars are actually worth it? When do they open? What do you order first? And why is a Seidla decidedly not a Maß.

Bamberg has nine active breweries within city limits. More than any other city of its size in the world. Here's what distinguishes each one.
Rauchbier tastes like smoked ham. That's not an exaggeration. Here's why that's a good thing and which one to order first.
In Franconia, you don't order a Maß. You order a Seidla — half a litre. It's not a small distinction. It's a cultural statement.
