Lovely place. In a moment of unplanned genius a forced a Stag party to march up the hill to this place, after a big sesh the night before. After a sweaty hour wandering through hills and forests, we finally got to sample the fabulous Andechs produce - if it had been any less delicious, I would have been lynched. Hilly, bucolic and with a lovely church. Wonderful. By the way, rather than a 1-hour walk up a big hill, you can actually get the bus from the nearest S-bahn station and it takes about 5 minutes.

You don’t climb the holy mountain of Andechs for fine food (although it’s rather tatsy) or for courteous service. It’s for the excellent beers and the history of this holy place. You can now also become a member of the club of "Andechs-Regulars", which means that you’ll get some discounts on entrance fees for cultural events and: if you manage to order 10 Mass you’ll get one Mass free !

This is a beer Mecca!!! Whether you are going to see the monastery atop this Holy Mountain or enroute for the delicious selection of beer and food, this is just simply a must-go destination. They even have these oddly interesting wooden carved sculptures as you’re making your way up. Served straight from the brew kegs into either a 0.5L or 1L mug you will find yourself wanting to try each and every offering. But don’t forget the food!! They also sell bottles on site if you plan or traveling a distance away or fear you might not find it in stores. This beer is offered few and far in between if you know where you’re looking but I always treat this one as exclusive simply because I can’t allow myself to miss it when I’m there. Enjoy!! Prosit!!

Interesting journey to get here from Munich. A moderate train ride and then a decent hike up the mountain from Herrshing if you don’t get lost in the woods. OR you can take the bus I guess. Very nice place with views of the alps and an expansive patio. I like their weisse a lot. The doppelbock is quite good but not the standout that most people seem to think it is. So solid beer, great location and views, fun trip... definitely one to put on your list while in Munich, though maybe not just for the beer. You have to be into the journey as well.

A bit touristy but a nice place to enjoy a beer and pretzel after the walk to the abbey.

Great beer! Drank the Doppel and one almost put me to rest. This brewery has been in existence for nearly 600 years, brewing at the highest standard of German breweries. I recommend walking from the train station instead of taking a car, as its worth the walk. Try the pork knuckel as well.

you can drink one of the best bavarian beers in the brewery, eating typical food while you sit in front of an amazing panorama! to dream!

This is a fantastic site, unfortunately mostly turistic.

Beautiful site, but gets very crowded. The beer is excellent and the food very good, you can queue for ages for the food though - and as most of the other visitors seems to be German, don’t expect them to be much good at queuing!

A holy place, also for beerlovers! The Doppelbock dunkel was heavenly good. But beware, a small glass here is 50 cl.. The Schenke was an effective way to get a beer or two. You order, pay, get a receipt that you switch to a beer just around the corner. The beer comes from wodden barrels. Minigolf right next to the parking lot. (Visited July 3rd 2011)
