Ray,
Where are you headed in Germany? I haven't been there in years, but do love the place. Are you going on vacation? Work? If you don't speak much German, no problem... almost everyone there speaks english. I'd recommend two pocket-sized phrase books. One from (of course) Berlitz and the other is by Lonely Planet. Rick Steve's German Phrasebook is also pretty good.
When I lived there, I drank the light (helles) or the dark (dunkles) beers. There was a pils type but I didn't like that as much as the light. Just a matter of personal taste...
Ray

There are, of course, many types of beers in Germany. My favorites to avoid are: Bitburger Pils, anything from Berlin, Budvar (actually a Czech beer, and ancestral to our Budweiser), actually any Pilsner for that matter. If you are in Munich and choose to visit the tourist trap called the Hofbrauehaus but would like to stay reasonably sober, don't get the liter Mass. Instead, enjoy their Hefe which comes in a 500 ml glass. If you have the luck to go to Garmisch-Partenkirchen area check out the Ettaller Klosterbier, and the Kapuziner Weizen. Both are particularly nicely textured wheat beers intended to be used when otherwise fasting  . Got to love a fast on which one could actually gain weight!

I like bratwust and weinersnitzel, but growing up near St Louis, am kinda partial to Anheiser Busch beer (altho I liked the Greisideick beer better, but they quit making it). Guess that doesn't qualify me, huh?
