Yes, the evening began with a semi-civilized dining on plates of predetermined authentic regional appetizers including meats, tartar, cheeses, crackers, and breads.

The main course Sauerbraten much of the same with beautiful and delicious Schnitzel, Sauerbraten, Spaetzle, Laberkason, Red Cabbage, and Cheesecake for desert. Service was outstanding and on spot. The Brauerei was warm and festive. A fantastic meal, great spirited vibe with fresh Kolsch that never stopped!

They use the cologne system of measuring the beers you drink by marking your coaster. Their beers are fantastic. Some are aged in whiskey barrels and and brewed by the restaurant. I was also a big fan of the pink panther. Their food was also phenomenal! The brautwerst and sausages was amazing. The staff was so welcoming of a beer n00b like myself. They kept bringing out samples for me to try. They had such pride for their incredible product. I will definitely be back!!!

Glad to have discovered something I love almost as much as stouts. Braustelle's Munchausen sour ale also ranks up there with the sours I love.

Of course, as expected, the evening grew into a wonderful time with laughs, singing, and even sharing stories of days past. The tap and slender glasses of cold Kolsch kept arriving. The only way to stop the friendly servers from delivering was to reluctantly place your beverage coaster on top of your glass, signaling a No Thank You. Sometimes ignored and graciously thanked. Our group of recently acquainted strangers quickly became friends with a similar liking of fresh Kolsch, which is to be respected and enjoyed only while in Cologne.
