Shelly, Next time you go to Germany go to Munich. Real Beer and real food. Many schnitzels and wursts aplenty, plus you can get a respite from sauerkraut by substituting red cabbage. Weizens are for breakfast and the tors (Celebrator, Optimator, etc.), mixed in with some schwarze beers and some doppelbocks, are the evening beers. Plus Munich is much more laid back compared to other places in Der Fatherland.
