Darmstadt is okay, and the local beers are pretty standard, with primary products being the usual ocean of Pils, but there are some decent seasonals and specialties, like Pfungstädter's 1831 Schwarzbier and Darmstädter's 1847 Zwickelbier (note that Pfungstädter and Darmstädter are still independently owned, too). The real treat is the Maruhn drink shop in Pfungstädterstrasse, the connector road between Darmstadt's southern Eberstadt suburb and Pfungstadt (http://www.maruhn.de/main/main.htm).
