Impression: One of the greatest brewpubs you’re likely to have the pleasure of enjoying a beer and meal in. It oozes the old world and there’s generally a couple beers from big wooden barrels to add to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, these are no longer authentic and are regular taps funneled through very nice looking wooden barrels. That said, the beers are not gassy.  It had an incredibly soft palate and the malty elements mingled perfectly with ample hopping. The long finish lingered in your mouth right up to the somewhat bitter but altogether pleasant finish. It’s a dangerously drinkable bock!

Next beer or back to the beer list.
