Finally, a brandy that’s actually good, we’ve been having more than a few middling to lower tiers. There is a drawback though – you’re certainly paying for that ‘goodness’. It might, however, be worth it because ultimately this is a very pleasant, mellow, and warming beverage.

Warsteiner Premium Verum Pilsner
Warsteiner: 1.0 – That’s really quite awful. There’s not a defining aspect of it’s awfulness beyond tasting like what I imagine wet socks to taste like. I think the part I hate the most is how the name doesn’t remotely match to the taste.
Price $5

Summer Vacation: Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier Wheat Bier
Franziskaner: 5.5 – It’s an average weissbier. I think it might be hard to find in the states, but overall while I like the beer – you are getting what you pay for price wise. It’s a nice balance of nut and banana with malt flavoring though.
Price Average: Franziskaner $3

Summer Vacation: Maisel’s Weisse Original Bier
Maisel’s Weisse: 5.5 – it’s an okay bier but its almost whisper of flavor paired with a bit too much lightness makes it easy to drink. The downside there is that it stops it from being a great beer.
Price Average: Maisel’s Weisse $4

Kulmbacher Monchshof Kellerbier
Monchshof Kellerbier: 6.0 – It’s certainly tasty, but it gives you just enough to feel like it’s holding back from you. I wonder if there’s another beer from their line that just has that extra oomph behind it.
Price Average: Monchshof Kellerbier $4
Schwaben Brau Das Schwarze Schwarzbier
Das Schwarze Schwarzbier: 5.0 – It’s an okay schwarzbier, but the taste leaves much more to be desired.
Price Average: Das Schwarze Schwarzbier $5
