Impression: After a day of drinking less than stellar and not particularly Franconian beer in Nürnberg I finally got a soft traditional Franconian beer, from Staffelberg-Bräu no less. It’s malty with a peppery element I find simultaneously satisfying and oddly incongruous. There’s a nice grain element and overall, probably the best beer experience of the day. Nice Brotzeit and atmosphere at the pub as well.
