Robust Franconian Kellerbier with a quality improving towards the bottom of the mug, especially when you sit in the beautiful old-time Keller a couple of hundred meters south of the brewery.

I lived in Herzo for 4 years and visited about 150 breweries during that time. Schwarzes Kreus was my favorite dunkles beer (dark amber) of all the breweries. The guest house was pretty much a watering hole for the locals which gave it a very traditional local flavor. Few tourests were seen here. The food menu was small and not that good but the appitizers were great. Buy a krug as the logo is a great classic. I have a full set for parties here at home in the states.

well... your statement seems to be a little bit improper... Schwarzes Kreuz, or also known as the BAAMHANS is actually one of the best breweries in franconia´s beer-capital eggolsheim. and furthermore i have to admit that one does not have a choice with the food since you´re supposed to take "schnitzel" which is by the way the best in whole ... lets say franconia. DON`T YOU DARE CRITICISING THE BAAMHANSSCHNITZEL !!! :) so far so good. if you need further informations regarding franconian breweries, just ask some franconians :) www.etown.tk ... registering is in german but once you´re in you can post anywhere you want and we´ll be glad to help you. Bye bye, tobi from eggolsheim... >-)

Lovely Wirtshaus with a very pleasant and easy to drink dark Vollbier! Recommended on hot days!

I took a photograph of bush, and thought why did I take that photo, yet behind the greenery was a quiet, hidden, unadvertised beer garden. This was considered to be one of the most unique beers in the Bamberg area. make that visit!

This was the beer I had during my travels round Bavaria in 2008. Definitely worth stopping of for a few beers. I only wish I had stayed for more.

Another classic, simple country pub. The excellent Vollbier is deep amber and dry. I sipped by beer in near total silence and admired the simple pleasures of Franconia.

The Bierkeller for the brewery, operated by a friendly young couple, is really a classic. I've not eaten there in years, but it's typical Brotzeit and Wurst. The beer is served "bayerisch Anstich", i.e. from a gravity barrel, without CO2. This makes a substantial difference from the CO2 keg version at the brewery. It can suffer from diacytel sometimes, but it's got more character in any case.
