Idyllwild Trip report
Hi everyone,
In our run-up to Oktoberfest, Paulaner Girl and I have been busy sampling brews, and low and behold, we found a spot of Nirvana.
Idyllwild is a small mountain town located about 85 miles North East of San Diego. It's a great town, full of good restaurants, bars, Antique shops, and great views of the mountains. We went hiking and camping. The climbing is great there too. Idyllwild is located on the west side of San Jacinto Peak, which is next to Palm springs. You may have seen the Tram that goes up to the top. People who go from the Idyllwild side climb up Devil's Slide.
A friend recommended a place called Motzart. It is just out side of town. The first time we stopped it was closed for a hour between dinner and lunch. But it looked promising.
The second time was the charm. And the featured bier of the restaurant is... Weltenburger Kloster Bier!
They had the Dunkel, so I partook of the fine brew, on a sunny afternoon in their Beer Garden. Superb.
This makes it required that we visit the fine monks... I give it 4 1/2 Steins!
