Munchen, sort of






ok, this is only the first post for Munich and the only one i'm doing tonight, because i need to leave to meet some people. we got to Munich maybe around 9:30 or so and didn't get out on the street until after 10. the first place we went was this small Paulaner brewhaus. as far as i can tell, they brew with the same ingredients as the big Paulaner brewery, but on a small scale. i ordered the weis bier and i think it was the best weis bier i have ever had, period. we also ate some weiswurst and i think pretzels. after that we went to find the Hoffbrauhaus, but when we got there, it was closing. 12 midnight. that's when almost everything closes in Munich. keep that in back mind if you ever go there. it took us forever to find another place that was open and 5 minutes after we ordered a bier they started trying to kick us out. then we went down the strasse to this Irish pub that stayed open enough for us to have 2 biers. we should have gotten into town earlier i guess. first 3 at Paulaner, a church in a platz, and the last, some drunk German riding a stationery fake lion. that was about all we could do that night. more of Munich later.
