| I really appreciate all the comments here from the true experts. I hold you all in high regard and will continue to shamelessly pick your brains at every opportunity (via various media or preferably in person). As some of you know I'll be based in Berlin for a few years, so you should see/hear more of me for a whle. A lot of folks saw that article online in the past couple of weeks, even though it was originally published months ago, was written more than a year ago, and was mostly researched in August 2013. Such is the magazine biz. I have heard increasingly poor things about Klosterbrau, where I had good experiences four and five years ago. The beer I had there last year was not great but not poor enough to tarnish my memories. Will keep an eye on it, hopefully things turn back around there. On that note: I'll be in Bamberg the evening of December 29, staying at Dreieck near Mahr's and Keesmann. If anyone is around let me know. Gerhard, I hope to rouse the family for breakfast at Abseits next Tuesday morning! |
