We're on a day trip to Rosenheim, visiting the Herbstfest Rosenheim, drinking Flötzinger Wies'n-Märzen. I'm not saying this lightly, but this is probably the only Festbier I've had that is as good as Augustiner's.

We did the brewery tour at Hofbräuhaus Traunstein today. Probably the best one we ever did, we got to see all the equipment (except packaging), including the open fermenters and the horizontal lagering tanks, and even had some great samples of beer afterwards.

So... we're actually in Traunstein now, and drinking at that brewery. Less well known than Hofbräuhaus Traunstein, but also excellent. This is their Zwickl.

A Bavarian Helles I've not had before, and I like it. A bit more bitter than usual, which is actually balanced out by a bready maltiness. Also goes well with green olives. #BavarianBeer
