Except for export :) This will be the 1st year I haven't had the Fastenbier :( And I was supposed to be there, but had to cancel. The first year some knowledgeable locals put two and two together and got six: They heard that much more Ur-bock was brewed (because of the US market) and here comes this new beer that tasted (to them) like the Lagerbier blended 50/50 with the Ur-bock so they assumed that is what was done with all that "leftover" Ur-bock :) BTW, Nick, you should have wandered (staggered?) down to Mahrs as I hear the Weizenbock (also released Wed.) is very good this year.
