    My husband and I are beer lovers. Naturally, when we moved to Italy from Charlotte a few months…read moreago, we were really worried about leaving behind all the wonderful craft breweries in North Carolina. So, you can only imagine our pure joy when we discovered Birrone just a few minutes from our new home in Caldogno! They have an extensive offering (8+ beers on draught and even more in the bottle) with something for everyone. I.E. they had an IPA for my hop-head husband and every other style for me. My favorite was the wheat beer, Cibus. Described as "pane liquido" (liquid bread) on the bottle, it was one of the best beers I've had in a while! And, I'm not just saying that because it's hard to find good beer in Italy. Their Cibus could easily hold its own in the US beer scene. The tap room doubles as a restaurant with lots of tasty Italian versions of bar food. On our first visit, we ordered the Tagliere Misto XL, a cutting board that came heaped with piles of porchetta, prosciutto, speck and cheese. Way too much food for 2-people but it was only €10 so we couldn't resist!

    What an awesome find! It doesn't hurt that it is 10 minutes from my wife and I in caldogno. This…read moreplace is perfect if you are looking for a beer and food combo not found too often here in Italy. The tagliere board, meat board, is an incredible value and includes three killer meats for about 10€, unbeatable. The fries are solid as well. They have hoppy beer selections which is not too common in the area. I had a double India Pale Lager and another single IPL. They were both very heavy on the bready malt and had strong hop bitterness with a little boozyness as well. Solid, extra points for willingness to make a high hop beer. Their star was the wheat beer my wife had. It was incredible and since we are only a couple hours from Germany, not a huge surprise their wheat beer was really good. I like this place, it is unique for this area and reminds me of a place you would find in North Carolina.

    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.

The real specailty is the rump steak served on a blazing hot slab of stone. Amazing to see. There are several floors in this historic structure.

We liked the fare enough to return 2 nights in a row. On recommendation from our server, Valentine, I had the steak on the hot lava rock and a Viennese Lager that had won gold in a European craft brewing competition. I could cook the steak to my medium rare liking right at the table on the hot stone...very cool! The beer was exemplary, the cost for the 300g steak which was tender and locally sourced was about $20, and the way the kitchen was organized bears mention. The wait staff stayed on the floor taking excellent care of the patrons. They relayed their orders to the kitchen via a handheld called a Leo2 device. The kitchen obviously had some items pre-prepped. The food was run to the tables by other servers and the waiter kept a close eye on the process to assure satisfaction. 2 nights in a row, I was served my entire meal in less than 5 minutes! And it was delicious! This service process is the wave of the future, for sure. Second night, I had the pork ribs which were very good, but not as good as the steak.
