He had a great personality, infused a lot of humor with all of the information, and was good with people. The beer was very good. There was soooo much beer on the tour and people kept handing me theirs (I don't know why). Needless to say, I was feeling it by the end of the tour. 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. Lol There was a nice little gift shop that had a variety of things for different interests and ages.

Kloster Brewery Ettal is only one brewery I visited in Germany. Historically Germany monastery…read morebreweries were primarily responsible for the production of beer and the beer supply of the population. When I was on vacation in Germany I really enjoyed visiting Kloster Breweries. You feel like you are having a religious experience with a beer buzz. Since I was collecting Beer Steins at the time I purchased two at one Kloster Brewery I visited. I like the feel of the stein and the taste of beer when you drink it out of this stein. I've kept my steins for years and years. I'm recommending when you visit Germany that you tour one (or more) of the monastery or castle breweries. It's an unforgettable experience! Klaus, if I get anything wrong please tell me. I don't want to look too stupid. All I have are my happy memories. Plus I have my souvenirs placed where I can see them all the time!!!

The pews look original and you can find carvings people left in the wood. Many Of the carvings are initials with dates. We found some from 1770. The monastery was build in 1330. We stopped by the gift shop afterwards. They have a great selection of home brewed beers, liquors and other little trinkets. I would highly recommend to visit Kloster Ettal when in the area.

You can serve yourself beer from 5pm-10:00pm and there were 6 options of beer to choose from! We loved every type of beer on tap. We arrived late to our beer pool but the owner was kind enough to leave a note on the door for us and showed up 5 min after we called. Bring your own towels and soap - there are showers to rinse off with after you leave the beer pool! Shout out to Andrea for being such an awesome host! We will definitely come back to starkenberger next time we are in Austria!! Amazing experience!!!

The food was great it was not as salty as the other places we visited in Munich(e.g Hofbrau Haus, Austiner). We had the schnitzel, roasted duck and shweinshaxe. All very good, The schnitzel was very tasty and tender. The roast duck was moist and not gamey; very savory and succulent. The schweinshaxe was tender but kept the integrity of the skin was intact and crispy. The service was great because we arrived in between lunch and dinner. But it was pretty busy in the "cafe " area. It seems the servers were from university; students working as a side hustle. The ambiance was that of a beer hall with a hunter's motif very cozy in the area we were seated (the right side of the building as you enter the door.

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.

When we finally did and asked for menus, he said he was too busy and someone else would take care of our table, but no one came for another 15 minutes. I normally would have left at this point, but we walked a while to get here, since we had heard how good it is. We started with the pretzels, because we were starving at this point, but I thought the pretzels were only average. The Würstpfandl I ordered had 3 different types of wurst, sauerkraut, and potatoes. It was pretty good, but not way better than any other Austrian food I've had over the past 5 months. Due to the bad service and average food, I wouldn't come back here the next time I'm in Innsbruck.

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.

One star off for the less than friendly server at the restaurant.
