I could be wrong on that, so check the Germany or Lufthansa forums.
FRA is easier to get to the city centre than MUC, but it is very easy in MUC and everything about MUC is better than FRA: culture, food and especially the beer.

AMS is a great stop for beer as well (please don't drink crap in green bottles) - stick to some newer artisinal brewers in the Netherlands (de Molen, etc) and of course, it's easy to get into Centraal from Schipol...
