I believe the answer is:

bavarian

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'munich perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'boy embracing girl' is the wordplay.
'boy' becomes 'brian' ().
'embracing' is an insertion indicator.
'girl' becomes 'Ava'.
'brian' going around 'ava' is 'BAVARIAN'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bavarian that I've seen before include "from the Continent" , "Southern German" .)
