Mahr’s Bräu

June 4, 2008
Down the street from Keesmann’s, be sure to hit both at once. Tables and barrels out front for sitting and drinking, prices for beer and food listed on large signs hanging from the beerhouse, attentive waitresses, easy going atmosphere, no surprises. The kellerbier is especially good fresh vom fass.

We just got here to load some crates in the car. Ambience in the biergarten was not that great compared to others in the city. Okay, okay, it was 10:00 in the mourning when we arrived. :-) Their beers are okay.

A very cozy bierstube, with a beutiful green tile-covered stove. Seems like a very local place, and the employees wears very beutiful clothes. 3 beers on draft and 5 beers in bottles, though only 2 I hadn’t had. But still a nice place just to hang out and wait until Papsø gets thru all the beers he needs to sample.

Big beergarden located in front of the brewery, where you can smell all the grain and hop. There should be food available, but when we arrived only some boring pretzels were there. Also staff was less friendly compared to other bars.

First pub I visited in Franconia, the beers are all good, nice open beer garden... the kitchen was closed but they gave us some nice big cheese and meat platters. Its all pretty cheap too. For some reason there were heaps of tourists here, making it the only beer place (other than Schlenkerla) in Bamberg I felt to be a bit touristy.

A cosy plase with 4 different beers, one from a wooden cask. Good beer.

Quaint inside, with the two draught beers served from wooden casks. Very helpful staff.

A wonderful contrast of very calm cool beer garden well shaded by chestnut trees and a wonderful panelled, low ceilinged bar with beautiful beers served from the wood.

One of the highlights from a recent trip. We went there more times. The food is standard German stuff, as was the service. Beers were very good, served from wooden casks and the hefeweizen. On of our favorite place in Bamberg, definitely worth the walk up the canal to visit.

One of the highlights from a recent trip. We went there three times, once for dinner, once for evening drinks, and one morning to pick up a souvenir before we left. The food is decent, standard German stuff, as was the service. Beers were very good, especially the "U" served from wooden casks and the hefeweizen. The third visit absolutely won us over, though. We stoped in to buy a beer stein, and met Stephan, the brewery VP. We chatted for about a half hour, he gave us a full brewery tour, and gifted us a 4-pack before we left. Our favorite place in Bamberg, definitely worth the walk up the canal to visit.
