Show Notes
One of Cee's major bucket list items is to get out to Europe and experience the rich beer heritage firsthand. In the meantime, the next best thing is to hang out at the satellite brewery for Bavaria's Hofbräuhaus just over the border in Buffalo, New York. During our last visit in December, we connected with Braumeister Scott Shuler for a tour, which of course turned into a podcast. Scott and Cee chatted about their unique 450+ year history, why it's government-owned and Bavarian laws apply to Hofbräu beers anywhere in the world, the arrangement between Munich and the satellite locations to brew their classic beer in very specific ways, the freedom Scott has with other related seasonal beers, why altering the water profile breaches the German Purity Law of 1516, his eclectic beer history from Tampa to Buffalo, the impeccable and authentically German food program at the brewery, and why he'd love a trip out to Bavaria. They got into five crowlers straight from Buffalo: Hofbräu Original Premium Lager, Hofbräu Münchner Weisse, Dunkel, Hofbräu Schwarzbier, and Hofbräu Doppelbock. This was a fascinating convo - cheers!
