| Undoubtedly the Drügendorfer Lager from Brauerei Först, bayerischer Anstich at Vogelgässler. I asked him why and how he's got such an obscure beer. He wanted something OTHER than Forchheimer beer, and is friends with (the brewer?) Först. Sadly, the Neder was very much *off* form last night: vegetal, waxy, butterscotch. It was a real struggle to finish a Seidla. Lovely place though.  Helles Export next door at Hebendanz was OK, but the Bock was sweetish and also a bit vegetal: corn on the cob. No Greif yesterday evening. Spent the evening with four young Englishmen who were staying at Kraus in Hirschaid. Lo and behold, three of them happen to be from lovely Thanet, the obscure corner of Kent Mrs & I have fallen in love with. Stayed out much too late with them at the Pils bar place (Forchheim's oldest tavern!) across from Eichhorn, where the keg Eichhorn was also butterscotchy. The bottled Dunkel was OK though. Tough night. |
