This is a picture of the Rathaus, to the
left of the Christmas tree, The city you are
looking for is Munich (München) and the
famous christmas market is the "Christkindlmarkt".
Munich is certainly a city, some call it
germany's largest village, that one should
visit when going to Germany.
Before christmas, the "Christkindlmarkt" is
certainly the main attraction, but
throughout the year there are many
attractions and places to visit. Of course
don't forget to have some beer and white
sausages with sweet mustard in one of the
several "Biergärten".
I have been to Munich quite some times, and
I think the best thing that happened to me
there was when I was a little kid, and I
talked to a native about soccer. He asked me
if I like "Bayern München" although I was
not from the area, I said yes, and he went
home to get me a signed picture of Helmut
Haller, a former star of the team.

Your seasonal
Bier Picture:
Bavarian Bier Lovers Corner:
How did the Bock get to Bavaria? “Bock” is also the Germany word for
a ram or a billie-goat. However, contrary to
popular perception — and
contrary to the images featured on many
Bockbier labels — the beer
has nothing to do with the animals by the
same name. Rather, the Bockbier story starts
in the Lower Saxon town of Einbeck in the
north of Germany in the middle of the 13th
century. The town was famous for a strong
dark ale made from wheat and barley which it
exported to many distant places, including
Munich, where it was much favored by the
nobles who preferred the import from the
north to the local brew.
The beers
from the north may have been good, but they
were also expensive and a constant drain on
Bavaria’s money supply. This was much to the
chagrin of Duke Wilhelm V, who ran his own
brewhouse in Landshut (50 miles northeast of
Munich). In 1590, Wilhelm had a new beer
brewed in Landshut, a strong brown to red
lager, which he hoped would finally
recapture the market lost to the northern
brewers. A year later, he completed another
brewhouse in Munich, where it stood at the
“Platzl” in the center of the city, on the
site of the now famous Hofbräuhaus.
Initially, the new lager was sent only to
members of the nobility, but by 1610, it was
also delivered to the local innkeepers and
private households.
Yet,
the new Munich strong beer simply was no
match for the brew from Einbeck. Thus, it
was Wilhelm V’s successor, Duke Maximilian
I, who finally put an end to the dominance
of northern beers in Munich by landing a
grand coup. In 1612, he enticed one
Einbecker brewmaster, Elias Pichler, to come
to Munich and create an authentic copy of
the famous original Einbecker beer. Under
Bavarian influence, however, the strong ale
from Einbeck metamorphosed into a strong
lager, which is what we know as Bockbier
today. The first strong beer brewed the
“Einbeck way” was dispensed at the
Hofbräuhaus in 1614. The Bavarian dialect
soon mangled the name Einbeck to “ayn pock”
and, eventually, to “ein Bock” (one Bock).
And that’s how the Bock got to Bavaria.

Great for fall and winter: Top fermented, full body, dark brown and
an unusual pleasure with it’s rich maltiness and moderate hops. This
old, traditional Bavarian beer specialty from the world's largest
wheat beer brewery is
the result of a great balance of the ingredients and the fine art of
Bavarian brewing.
Bavarian
Bier Seminars Would you like to participate in these entertaining and educational
Power Point Presentations that include Bier and Food? We start at 7:30
pm. Seating is limited to 40 guests, minimum 12 students.
A specialty from
Swabia:
Fresh pasta pockets are filled with ground veal,
spinach, sautéed onions
and slowly poached
in rich beef broth, many guests like their Maultaschen topped with
melted Swiss cheese,
while others
like them swimming in the broth. Either way they are
delicious on a cold winter day!
