The Beer Traveller

Detour caused a few wrong turns & some tours of sketchy neighborhoods, but I finally got to The Herkimer.  From the outside, it looks like an Irish Pub, but their beers are purely German. If you’re a local that likes variety, this may be the place for you.  They brew 17 different beers & use keep 6 on tap at any one time.

The brewmaster is from Germany & the beers are all German Lagers.  They had some equipment issues & had to scrap some beer so I only tried 5 of their brews.  Unfortunately I was not a fan; the one exception being the High Point Dunkel which received an exceptional.  The 2nd place finish was the Red Flyer Marzen, which is said to be the employee favorite.  The Dunkel Weiss was undrinkable with the other 2 beers falling in the drinkable category.  Full reviews will be coming soon.

On the upside, Iowa Ryan gave 1st class service w/ a smile.
