Impression: We’d had an amazing beer in Höfen but it would have been hard for me to walk by a brewery on the way back to the station. My wife knew this and was a good sport about dropping in when she’d probably have just bee-lined to the station. Sometimes you get lucky and the second beer is just as good and this was one of those times. It looked like a keeper and it was, a dry hoppy quaffer. It’s the kind of beer we both love and find more often in Franconia than anywhere else.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
