It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

beer bratwurst and bavarian beauts.
anyone recommend bars/clubs, city centreish hotels?
Flemings hotel in the city centre is fucking excellent. Loads of top quality bars nearby.
Let me know when you're going as if I'm working out there at the time I'll join you for a few beers.
Do it by PM though as if DB10 finds out when you're away he'll rob your house
Also be aware that Munich has just opened a "Clothing optional" area within the city
still working on the hotel. one of my m8s is looking at places around the central station dont seem to expensive, but is that too far out the city centre?
will be there 2 nights, when does it begin to get lively in the evenings, is it like spain where it starts late?
any recommend beerhouses/bars/clubs and ones that will stay open till well into the am???

Well recommended
By the way, for you twenty somethings - Checkpoint Charlie isn't where you can pick up some gear.

Haufbrahaus worth a visit. There is a good Irish bar with an Australian bar attached. Il find out the name and post it. Both bars were excellent. There is an area just outside the city where all the night clubs are. Any of the taxis will take you there but that's normally a 2am jobbie

cheers
The central station won't be too far from the city centre mate so I don't think that's a problem.
The centre has many different beer halls. I think what it lacks are areas of densely packed bars/pubs. Here is the link for the out of centre area
Would reccomend Augustiner as an alternative to Hofbruahaus. Right near the main station.
Havana Club a decent bar for some good drinks and Atomic Cafe a cool, compact nightclub only a 300 meter walk away. Both are close to Hofbrauhaus/Dubliner Irish bar across the plaza.
