This lively, often rowdy, ale house/restaurant turns out good German fare. The honey-garlic brie appetizer melted over hot French bread is irresistible and very pungent. A mug of one of the many German beers available here is the perfect accompaniment to the house specialties, which include veal bratwurst, knodel mit pilzsauce (bread dumplings served with a mushroom-wine sauce), and the ubiquitous wiener schnitzel. Capped off with a dessert of apple strudel or crepes, a meal here is like taking a trip to Germany, minus the jet lag.
