I think you may have mentioned this place before, but it's been ages since I've gone to San Diego (like January or February), so I've completely forgotten about it. What part of town is it in? Are the alt and Kölsch on year-round? And what is it with San Diego and goofy brewpub names?

Those are patterned after completely different styles of beer. Belgian wit and Bavarian hefeweizen both use wheat, and both are cloudy, but they use entirely different types of yeast and have completely different flavor profiles.
-Steve
Sounds intriguing. Must be Eastern beers I assume, as I have never seen them out here on the West Coast. The only attempted Alts I've had here were brewed by Widmer and Alaskan and Alts they ain't, at least not Dusseldorf-style Alts.

Well I guess I stand corrected, partially.
Speaking of Stickebier, anybody else going to be at zum Uerige on Oct 21st?

So much dick waving.

Wow, she really IS a regular now!
Ms. Phrawglette is nothing if not a quick study. She has also made a recommendation for a good beer bar about an hour or so north of where I live; it is one I have yet to visit.
Smart chicks rule, and you know it.
Not just a recommendation, but an outstanding invitation to join me. How I enjoy your company over beer (and parting hugs).
(btw, that's Mrs.) fr0glet
Hey, sounds good. I'll meet you there.....Chuck C.
I'll try not to drink it all if I get there first...
Damn, Google is good. The "sponsored link" at the top of the page reading this was "Braumalze • Helle, dunkle und Farbmalze bester Qualitäten • meussdoerffer.de" -- I would guess it was "bier" that triggered it but that was in a compound word - cool!
Fred Waltman
well, then I'll be there at 10.00 on the money.....
Perhaps further research on this beer is required....Chuck C.
It isn't beer. It's brewing malt ("Braumalze") in pale, dark, and "coloring" malt forms. You'd probably have a few hundred beers to seek out that contain Meussdoerffer's malts.
Don,
You ought to know that I know what malz is -- read my msg a little more closely -- I said it must have been the word "bier" in my post that triggered a German language add for braumalze.
Somebody you know.
Mea Culpa -- Chuck's msg came out of order.
**Heh. I think you should take Chuck along for another language- course session in Bamberg. Yes, I know *your* German is very much up to snuff.
Hey, I've tried. I thought it would help that the language school is next to Fässla and across the street from Spezial, but no joy.

I took the little test ... not quite 90%. I guess I should sign up for a refresher course sometime. What a hard life: brushing up on Deutsch, with Fässla, Spezial, and Bamberg's Weissbierhaus within just a few minutes walk. Doesn't get much better than that.
