Treasure of Europe Tour’s October Beer and Slow Food Tour includes 10 nights and 11 days on the beer and brewery trail in the nooks and crannies of Bavaria. The tour features craft beer tastings, brewery tours, Slow Food and gourmet specialties, an Alpine cow run festival and many other cultural highlights.
Sister Doris is a Franciscan nun. She’s also a certified master brewer with serious beer cred in Germany. Her luscious dark amber lagers and bocks are irresistible and she’s been brewing them for nearly 45 years at the Mallersdorf Abbey Brewery.
Beer and food are about nourishment. They’re also about connecting with people and they give you a sense of place.
Members of the group will meet Sister Doris and hear her story. They’ll get an inside look at independent breweries and meet craft brewers who are setting new trends. And they’ll experience the best in local beer and local cuisine right where they’re made.
Sister Doris is one of many delights on tap for the group. Others include an overnight in a castle, a private sausage workshop with an award-winning master butcher and a Zoigl brewhouse experience in Upper Franconia.
Also included: A tour and tasting with David Hertl, a young craft brewer who is using traditional techniques to make over-the-top craft beers; and the 20-something Meinel sisters who are rocking the Bavarian brewing scene with their amazing new-generation beers.
“We’ve crafted a beer tour that is rich in surprises and extras,” said Tom Conrad, owner of Treasures of Europe.
In addition to brewery visits and a top festival, a rare “Eat With the Locals-” feature is included.
The group will get a close-up taste of country cooking in a family setting at a private farm-to-table meal prepared by a local chapter of the ladies’ auxiliary of the Bavarian Farmers’ Association. “Our fall tour is the only trip offering an experience like this,” Conrad added.
Tour dates are October 3-13, 2014. Space is limited. A special tour discount is available until June 30. Tour information and itinerary are available at Treasures of Europe Tours. www.treasuresofeuropetours.com.
