What else is there to say? Bavaria overflows with appropriately situated beer gardens that offer delicious beer, bountiful food and slices of local life in equal measure ... but Spezial Keller is my favorite. It's on a hill overlooking Bamberg, and while lightly attended on the chilly September Sunday of our visit, welcomes huge crowds in optimum weather.
The beer is the lightly smoky Spezial, itself perhaps a Top Ten selection on my all-time list. It is brewed at Brauerei Spezial, a mile or so away; management of the brewery and beer garden is separate, but the beer just as lip-smacking. To get to the Spezial Keller, one must walk past the actual brewing site of Schlenkerla, as opposed to its tavern nearby.
I advise knee pads, given that opportunities for kissing the ground come fast and furious n Bamberg.
