well, we are brewing together in a few weeks, and eric has made mustard with our beer before... perhaps not as crazy an idea as you'd think!

Yeah. Especially in Weissenburg. For breakfast. (Not kidding about either.)mintjellie wrote:Anyone else think weisswurst, weissbier, Bavarian sweet mustard, and a pretzel is truly a great meal?
Sausage making is a European art form, mostly non-existent here, so I really reccomend you enjoy this calf brains sausage in Bavaria. The ones they sell here are probably mainly pigs fat, fillers and preservatives, but the real German ones barely last for one day because of of the authentic preparation using the calfs brains.

TBH, I've never had the real thing in Bavaria, though I'd like to someday. With that said, my stepmoms parents, who came from Bavaria, always used to buy Brandt weisswurst. Even if its not the same as what they would eat in the old country, it was good enough for them here. I think it tastes pretty good at least.
Especially with weissbier, mustard, and a pretzel.
He was a guy who never really lost his appreciation for quality. He was a baker by trade, owned a little place in Scarborough called Cafe Bavaria, and right up until he sold the place and retired he always did everything from scratch without cutting corners. And he loved his Hacker-Pschorr. God bless and keep him.
