Name That Skyline - Picture Game

[BruceH]

Heidelberg.

 

[drchris83]

Applescrap, you’re up.

 

[applescrap]

The home of weyermann was it ehh. Their malt house is apparently historic. I'll put one up soon!

 

[applescrap]

Only been there once.

 

[drchris83]

Other than „that’s gotta be in the US“ I got nothing.

 

[applescrap]

It's in Florida

 

[BruceH]

Tallahassee.

 

[shetc]

It's the phallus we call our state capital in Tallahassee.

 

[applescrap]

Tallahassee! BruceH your turn.

 

[BruceH]

 

[drchris83]

Porta nigra, Trier, Germany.

 

[BruceH]

Porta nigra, Trier, Germany.

Correct! You are up.

 

[drchris83]

 

[govner1]

Magdeburg Water Bridge

 

[drchris83]

Nope.

 

[applescrap]

Is that the Mississippi? So st louis

 

[drchris83]

It’s not in North America. Actually, govner‘s guess was not bad, just the wrong city

 

[govner1]

Trogbruck or Elbe

I followed the whole Dortmund-Ems canal on Bing maps and couldn't pinpoint an exact match. IIRC the canal crossed 4 rivers. Then I started to look at other canals in Germany and Europe, there are a whole lot, more than I would of ever imagined. The Europeans have been digging their own ways to to rivers or the sea for centuries.

 

[drchris83]

A hint: the canal in question actually is a part of the crossing in Magdeburg.

 

[BruceH]

Leteln is on one side of the canal bridge and Minden is on the other. The canal is the Mittellandkanal and the German name is of the crossing is the "Weser Aquadukt".

 

[drchris83]

Minden is correct, sir.

[Northern_Brewer]

I can't remember the name of the bridge, but isn't that the one in Lucerne?

Lucerne it is.

You're up.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Continuing the bridgey theme :

 

[applescrap]

Oban

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Nope

 

[govner1]

Aspen

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Getting colder...

 

[BruceH]

How about a hint. Is it in the Alps?

 

[JB_Brewing2]

Looks Roman.

 

[pvpeacock]

4 days and counting. 4 guesses. 2 Nopes. No hints. Like watching grass grow. Help us out.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Bit hard for me to respond when there's no guesses to respond to.

The Alps are getting warmer than the previous guess of Aspen, but it's not the Alps.

There is a beery connection.

 

[drchris83]

Somewhere in Scotland, tho?

 

[Northern_Brewer]

The geology is similar (and has the same origin in fact), but no, not in the British Isles.

Scotland is a bit warmer than the Alps though.

 

[drchris83]

Norway?

 

[Northern_Brewer]

Much warmer.

But where in Norway?

 

[drchris83]

Seems like it’s a place called Honndøla, wherever that may be.

 

[Northern_Brewer]

That's the bridge, I was more interested in the mountain on the skyline whose distinctive shape puts the "horn" in both the mountain name - Hornindalsrokken - and the surrounding area, Hornindal, which is best known to brewers as the home of one of the most famous kveiks.

You're up.
