Starkbierfest (Strong Beer Festival) is like Oktoberfest without the tourists. During this trip, we will attend at least 2 festivals and perhaps 3 or 4 if the schedule works! We also travel to Bamberg where you can try lots of unique beer styles - Schenkerla's Rauchbier, Mahr's U, and Keesman's Herren Pils, to name just a few. Additionally, we have planned day trips to Salzburg, Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Kloster Andechs. If you love beer, german food, and music, you'll love this trip!
