I visited Büttner on Saturday evening after a long day cycling and was once again struck by how good it is. On my previous visits, in summer, I have enjoyed the beer garden (hof) and the BA lagerbier very much. This time, all were inside and it was very busy. The beer was good (not BA but still pleasant) but the atmosphere was great. It strikes me as very much a locals place, a bit of a secret if you will, which not many people would know about in Bamberg in spite of the proximity to the city. Whilst not easy to visit with a car or bike, plus only being open Friday, Saturday and Sunday I would urge anyone who gets the chance to make a trip. 

I also visited Ampferbach (closed, for no apparent reason) and Schwanen Brau Burgebrach (also closed until 15.30 now on Saturdays). So onto Monchsambach where I had an export (fine) and a few BA lagerbier (bloomin lovely, as always). On my return to Burgebrach the Schwann was now open, first time I'd been in as usually the Keller is open. Has an air of sadness I found, its size suggests a more prosperous past, though it soon filled up. Good beer, Helles, Lager and Doppelbock. Very enjoyable. 

Sunday i visited Merkendorf after a Faschings procession in Memmelsdorf. Both Wagner and Hummel were excellent. Alles war in ordnung. 

Mahrs U is back to its best and BA remains firmly in place.
