Andechser am Dom

The location on a shady square behind the Frauenkirche is perhaps appropriate considering the beer that's served in this lively local favourite. The monks of the Andechs cloister just outside the city have been producing one of Germany's strongest beers, a double bock, since the 14th century. It's now consumed in large quantities by the patrons of this restaurant, which could explain the heavenly grins on their faces and the loud conversations. Great for Bavarian cuisine too.
