Some European reviews of the film

Hof Film Festival Oct 2012 

This documentary shows Black in his "native" Bavaria, where he has to hoof it from gig to gig to earn money. Tragicomic, honest, entertaining .. 

Christian Meyer [choices.de]

 

For fans of the Mothers of Invention in general and in particular Jimmy Carl Black, Sigrun Köhler and Wiltrud Baier's documentation is without question a godsend: Just the images of Black’s last tour in America, in Bavaria, interviews with former bandmates and vignettes of Black's life. Enough interesting moments to lift the heart ... "

"My favorite movie" - film critic Lutz Grafe discussing Where's the Beer and other contributions at the  Stranger than Fiction Documentary Film Festival of Jan 2013 in Germany.

 

"a touching, often funny portrait of a musician who never quite made ​​it into the limelight yet satisfied, looked back on an exciting life." 

Der Spiegel

 

"A funny and melancholy road movie..." 

Süddeutsche Zeitung
