February In Pittsburgh...

Valentine's Day is coming up fast.

Here's what I'm thinking:

I love this place! We have Hofbrauhaus in the South Side, and
Penn Brewery in the North Side (http://www.pennbrew.com/) so I don't as often go to Penn Brewery over Hofbrauhaus, but the Penn Brewery groupon is a great deal.

This is our version of the classic beer stein:

Look at our Zotter Stein

Here's another version of  a Beer Stein

I saw these cute tees on a CafePress.com email:

They are a little corny, but sweet.

Father's Day Brunch

Hofbrauhaus in the South Side was hopping on Father's Day. Besides their centuries old beer tradition, they offer a brunch that complements their beer brewed on site. Sausage, pretzels, spaetzle, red cabbage, their special mustard and Belgium waffles. It couldn't get much better for this dad. Meet the Riekers.

We think they are building a marina behind their summer biergarten. Time will tell.

March Madness: Hofbrauhaus Pittsburgh

Our stoneware Stein and Mug are functional and beautiful. Good for both hot and cold liquids, dishwasher and microwave safe, you can enjoy using them every day.

Like most of the country, Pittsburgh is going through some unseasonably warm weather. It feels like we went from the dead of winter to mid-summer..Zotter The Potter got a touch of spring fever and decided to kick up our heels a little at Hofbrauhaus Pittsburgh which we are lucky enough to have in our South Side Pittsburgh neighborhood. One of only three in the world, Hofbrauhaus continues an almost 500 year old  festive German beer hall tradition. Both Walter and I have been lucky enough to have gone to the original Hofbrauhaus in Munich. Being primarily of German and English descent, Walter looks like he fits right in, especially with his beard and Oktoberfest shirt. The restaurant's handcrafted beers, German menu and entertainment  make this place a great celebration destination. We invite you to find out for yourself.
