About this experience

The Reinheitsgebot has governed Bavarian brewing since 1516 and the breweries here still take it extremely seriously. The tour goes into a working brewhouse to see what that actually means in practice.

Then lunch in a proper beer hall — a Maß each, pretzels, and the group sat at long shared tables the way it is meant to be done.
