#Hofbrauhaus sauerbraten recipe full
Another centuries-old recipe, the hefeweizen has nice fruity notes to complement its wheat-heavy grain bill.Ī small selection of wine is also available, as well as cocktails and shots from the full bar. The lager, which Hofbräuhaus has been brewing for centuries, has a good malt-hop balance, making it easy drinking but more flavorful than the average mass-produced American version.

One of a handful of offshoots from the original in Munich, the restaurant and brewery offers a theme park-like Oktoberfest experience year-round – gift shop included.Ĭalling Hofbräuhaus a castle is only a slight exaggeration. If that sounds like your kind of fairy tale, make a plan to visit Hofbräuhaus in Belleville. Once upon a time, there was a magical castle across a river where the beer flowed, pretzels and sausages flew out of the kitchen, and polka music oompahed through the night.
