Brauerei Keesmann - Bamberg

General: After a professional appointment in Erlangen, there was finally the opportunity for a tourist trip to Bamberg. A city that has a lot to offer: Bamberger Symphoniker, the multiple German basketball champion, a university and, of course, UNESCO World Heritage Site with 1,500 listed buildings and above the Kaiserdom with its four church towers, which is, of course, also a cathedral for the bishop based in Bamberg. This is exceptional for a city with 73,000 inhabitants! Bamberg is also a cradle of Franconian brew culture! However, I couldn't win anything from the speciality Schlenkerla Rauchbier. A taste as if the brewer had given hammocks to the wort. In view of the many breweries with Gasthof I had made a pre-selection Fässla and Keesmann and then chose Keesmann. Half an hour walk from downtown via the Main-Donau Canal and then along the shore you have to invest. A little off, so my speculation, it's probably more authentic. I can't say if that happens after a visit. At least at two tables English was spoken, otherwise indigenous. In the morning of the following day in the Fässla also east of the canal probably only locals. I can recommend the Keesmann. You should book, however, because the capacities are limited and far away from the major conspirators in Düsseldorf or Munich. The price-performance ratio is from Bremer's point of view for eye rubbing and if you see clearly, you can only forgive five stars! An Internet presence is emerging. Service: It was operated only in the courtyard. A female tribal force and a maid had that well under control and so the waiting times were short, even between soup and frying, which I do not like. The speech was friendly but without special personal touch. For service three stars. In Keesmann you can drink beers of brewery. Pils, camps, lights and white beers are the standard beers, supplemented with seasonal specialities. For half a liter, € 2.65 to € 2.75 will be due!!! Hardly more expensive than half a liter of water for €2.40. A Schoppen 0,25 l Frankenwein comes to 3,60 €. A health-politically dangerous price level, but I did not see drunkenness on the eve of Steinbach Bräu in Erlangen, in which it was heavily consumed. I had decided for Mr. Pils what is well drinkable. On the eve of Steinbach Bräu in Erlangen there was a very successful Pale Ale, against which a Pils is inevitably boring. The standard card shows nine main foods, but is supplemented by a page “Day Recommendations” that offers further home cooking. Caprese is the only exot. Otherwise, it is expected to be fruitful with scavenger, roach, pork roast, sour kidney, bead etc. In addition to the famous clot that connects Franken with Thuringia, Pommes, Röstis, croquettes or roast potatoes are also served as a supplement. From the “day recommendations” I chose the Pfifferling cream soup for 3,80 € and then the pork crust roast in dark beer sauce with sauerkraut and closs for 8,70 €. An adult soup plate with a lot of fungus was brought. Not very hot and well thickened. Tastefully solid and good. A little whipped like a shot of white wine, but the soup would have done well. There was nothing to expose at the pork roast. A chasing rind that had won bubbles under the Salamander made the name of the court all honor. These include tasty muscle meat and a spicy, typically thin-liquid dark beer sauce, which, however, could be completely enjoyed thanks to the easy-to-suction clos. The sauerkraut was extra rich and was prepared mildly and cloly. Some juniper berries witnessed typical spicing. All in all, a pork bread dish as I had hoped for and for which I would like to give good four stars. With the slightly weaker soup, there are then close four stars for the kitchen of the Keesmann. Ambiente: Keesmann is located in the Wunderburg district opposite a church. Who the way from downtown is walking too long can also take the amazingly frequent driving city bus that keeps close. Unfortunately, I couldn't get an impression of the interiors, because the front guest room was locked and I shouldn't enter the back social space because it was just abandoned by a funeral company. On a Bamberg side, however, you can see that the Gaststube meets what promises the historical facade from outside [here link] . In addition and behind it is the actual brewery with its production and storage rooms. It's supposed to find 150 people out there, what I don't think. The solid tables and chairs are opaque on a granite plaster. In addition to the building, small platans and parasols provide the shade. The toilets are conveniently located at the passage to the street side. The number of facilities for relief is sufficient and has come from recent times. Cleanliness: It went clean.

The food was very good and the waitress very attentive. Though the main restaurant parlor was booked, they found us a nice place in the adjoining room. And surprisingly the waitress took good care of us there, too. We tried some of their own brew and we liked it there. Ergo: We could recoomend this place!

We had lunch in the lovely town of Bamberg Germany. The smoked beer was exceptional and very different. Enjoyed the service, it was very busy but we found room. Very reasonable.

Absolutely fantastic eating, although the chairs were very uncomfortable, hard to laugh. we arrived with a 19-clock reservation, make sure they have one, and there was a native with local men at our table. they enjoyed her being together and had no hurry to go. they waved us to themselves and since some had already left their group, 3 chairs were empty, so we sat down and started chatting with them. they were a group of friends who had found themselves together in the course of the years from school, work and community. we three ordered our drinks and our dinner and talked nicely with the two who stayed. they ordered another round and sat down to us. germany is one of the places where one shares a table with completely strange people, but in addition to a polite “good appetite” there are usually no talks. Here we talked with two completely strange ones about bamberg, beer, beer gardens, keesmann, aggression, label, tourist, local and living. at the end of our delicious food we finally organized a city tour with one of them who offered us to show us the opposite from local perspective. I ordered the circus, elchgulasch, with red cabbage and kartoffel balls. the gulasch had berry and was sweet, but not too sweet. as much as I thought the red cabbage was good, it was a huge, heavy meal, so I couldn't eat much of the cauliflower or the potato balls. I loved the gulasch and the cauliflower was also warm and tasty. I had a 0.25 liter glass of her dark beer, starla, and that had the perfect size. great taste, not too heavy. my spouse had his pork chop, which was huge and fried and panted what he liked, but it looked like a heart attack. our friend had the same as me and liked it. at the end our meals were great, the waitress maria was very friendly and the two men were pleasant company. my spouse and I even got a local tour through the surrounding area bamberg with two small local breweries where he knew the people and the beer was good.

Had made reservations for the evening, friends came too late and the owner harassed me again and again when they showed up to the point where it felt like she threatened me.
