Impression: This was the first time I finally made it to Friedmann’s Biergarten above the actual brewery, just up the street from the Bräustüberl. It’s got a great view and can’t wait to get back there. I was not expecting much from Sigi’s Lager but was surprised to find it a fairly drinkable brew, with some honey and grain in the otherwise dryish fruity mix. Not sure I’d go out of my way to have it again but I would be more than happy to drink it at this little Biergarten with a view.
