We trekked out here on the S bahn from the Munich City Center hotel on the S8 train. It took about…read more1.5 hours and then a short ride on a bus from Herrsching. Be prepared for a somewhat steep climb up to the Biergarten and Monastery. You will definitely need a beer when you reach the top. The property is gorgeous and we enjoyed the view. Definitely try any of the restaurants/food vendors. They all looked delicious and we decided on sausage and sauerkraut - very good. Also, the beer is fantastic! One star off for the less than friendly server at the restaurant.

This is an amazing place with a wonderful view. This centuries old Benedictine monestary has been…read moremaking beer for as long and it's fabulous. Since it is Oktoberfest and a sunny day on a Saturday the place is jammed full of people. There are several beer gardens and interior dining rooms as well. The group of us found a comfortable table in the sun in one of the beer gardens and some went to gather an array of traditional dishes while others went for the beer. Table service seemed to be available only indoors on this day. The food, an array of items such as pretzels, potatoes, meats like pork Haxn and meat loaf were quite tasty. The dark beer, "dunkel", is my favorite and it was fabulous. The varieties this time of year is mind boggling. A half liter was fine for me. What an enjoyable experience yet the crowds were a bit crazy too. One can always go into the church for some tranquility, if needed.

My "local" contact in Augsburg turned me on to a classic German culinary delight, König von…read moreFlandern Gasthausbrauerei. What's fun is that this restaurant is also a micro-brewery (hence the "brauerei" in the name) and makes a 19% bier called "Alligator". It's a dangerous animal, smooth and creamy and betraying none of the violence that will emerge after a couple of them. Because I was driving, I only got a sip or two and tried the dark ale and the Weiss instead. I prefer stronger tasting Weiss than what was available. The dark ale is nice, but I wouldn't go out of my to seek this bier out, honestly. So, on to what really impressed me! So, because I was in Germany, I wanted true German cuisine and König von Flandern didn't let me down. I ordered the Schwabenteller platter, which was composed of roasted shoulder of pork, livercheese, and crusty roast along with Swabian potato noodles and sauerkraut. My local contact opted for the Wiener schnitzel and my other companion opted for the famous pork knuckle, known as schweinshaxe. I have to say that everything was outstanding. My roasted shoulder of pork was about as good as I've ever had. I'm not a pork guy, but I'm in southern Germany, so I had either learn to like pork or walk away from the cuisine. The shoulder was SO very good that I cannot begin to describe it other than to say it was savory and soul-satisfying in a way that nothing other bacon can bring! The crusty roast was a delight as well, but I could eat the shoulder all day, every day. I'm not a huge fan of liverwurst, but I even enjoyed the livercheese! How can you go wrong with real sauerkraut from a real German restaurant, warm and acidic, but neither overwhelming or sharp like "American" kraut is. Both of my companions enjoyed their meals as well, but they didn't give me much to quote or share, but clearly they were both satisfied. Now, keep in mind that this may be one of the very first English reviews for the Augsburg area, but I have to say, I was VERY satisfied with this visit and I highly recommend König von Flandern!

Our personal favorite is the Dunkel, a darker full bodied truly Bavarian brew. You'll really want to drink them both, so plan to stay awhile in their charming Biergarten. All of their brews are organic, small batch beers, brewed onsite at this friendly, truly Bavarian establishment. The authentic food is some of the most delicious you'll find in all of Bavaria. The Schnitzel and German Potato Salad, yum! although everything we've eaten there was wonderful. The location is charming, nestled in the countryside with easy walking trails throughout the area. Consider this a "must stop" when you're in the area. It's on our list again for our next trip to Europe. PS: I understand they also offer occasional entertainment, but don't know much about it.

There was an interesting beer-based shot drink at the end that was good. Again, people kept giving me theirs and the tour guide poured me a second one. Geez! At the end of the tour we got to eat dinner. Yum! It was some of the best food I had while in Germany. There was also a quiz to see if you got some kind of certificate. We all cheated.
