    The Brewdog/Weihenstephaner collab 'India Pale Weizen' is worth drinking, has those nice sweet banana candy notes I like

    Andechs Weissbier is really good. Apparently Martins off license sell it sometimes. Its a monastery just outside Munich. If you are in Munich, its at the end of an S-Bahn line so you can take public transport right up to it. Its really pretty and the biergarten is a terrace. So you are looking at the Bavarian countryside. Then you can go swimming at the lake beside the S-Bahn and the alps are in the background
    Andechs is a great story. It's still ran by the monks and the cash from the beer sales is then used to benefit the poor and homeless in munich city. Their church st bonifatz is one of the few places to catch English language mass in munich, and that's their base in the city for all their good works.
    And despite the Catholic Church in Bavaria having an income of billions in church tax every year, on principle the andechs monks want to earn the cash rather than take the handout.
    If only the rest of the church was as enterprising.
