Ehingen (Donau): and you think the opening times in Franken are bad

The only reason I have is perspective. We're looking through the opposite ends of a telescope. Thier world is small and immediately in front of their door, they aren't thinking about beer travellers who have planned a day of their holiday to touring breweries by foot or with public transport. Maybe they told their stammgaeste. Anyone living locally who turn up will just shrug and go back home. Even with planned holidays, many places will just have a sign up saying they are closing for a holiday... their locals (and main custom) therefore know. Tourists aren't top of the prioirity list, even though it just takes a moment online.

People here aren't as passionate about pubs and breweries as we are. They frequent them regularly, but it's not special. Relatively few would walk specifically to visit breweries, let alone use public transport to do it. Many drive, so they'll go somewhere else if a place is shut. Most go and eat, so they'll try to ring and reserve. So I guess whilst the consequences for us are big, for them (and their customers) it isn't generally. 

To be ultra safe, call ahead, preferably on the day.
