At Augustiner Brewery you can still get yourself a good brew in a solid stone beer mug direct from the barrel. Why is it we don’t serve beer like this all over the place still? Sitting down with good mates with a plate of meat and a beer like this by your side, it makes perfect sense to me.
Augustiner Brewery in Salzburg is keeping the tradition going with their craft beers keeping true to the old ways of beer making, they even have a purity law dating back to 1516 that they follow. If you find yourselves in Salzburg at any stage then I highly recommend stopping into grab a beer and enjoy the beer hall, its got that perfect beer hall feel about it.
Loved that place! Worth the long walk up the mountain. I can’t get over seeing monks drink beer!
Caroline I missed the monks on my visit, would have been the perfect look with the big stone mugs as well.
My first beer hall experience was here and it really is one of the very best! But be sure to bring plenty of 20 cent coins… the lady in the bathroom knew me after a few visits!
Caitlyn I was imaging what it was like to be there for a massive event when I was there. My visit allowed me to pretty much sit wherever I wanted as it wasn’t very busy.
