shop, we are now selling our prized imported
German beers in bottles for carryout! People
who love the quality and traditional taste of all
the varieties of our world-famous Hofbräu beers
can now enjoy them by the bottle. That way, even
when you are away from your favorite beer hall,
you can still enjoy the great taste of our delicious
Hofbräu beers!
Delivered straight from the brewery in Munich
and priced by the six-pack, these bottled
Hofbräu beers for carryout can be purchased in
the gift shop near the main entrance.
Or, simply ask your server to add a six-pack to

Hofbräu lager, Dunkel, Weissbier, and select
seasonal brews will all be in bottles and available
for carryout purchase.
Please note, bottled beer purchased at the

These boots are made for drinking
Drinking out of a “Bierstiefel” (Beer Boot) is a
German tradition that some say dates back to the
14th century in Heidelberg, Germany. It’s said that
fraternities would compete against one another in
saber duels and after the competition was over would
get together and drink out of their boots.
Another theory is that soldiers would pass around
a leather boot filled with beer before engaging the
enemy in battle. The tradition dictates that one
should flick the boot before and after drinking from
it to bring good luck. A glass version of the boot was
employed during World War II where American soldiers
were introduced to the tradition.
One thing theoricists and historians can agree on is
that drinking out of a beer boot is not as easy as
it appears. Here are some valuable instructions that
might be helpful in preventing “spilling” experiences.
The trick to using the Beer Boot is to make sure the
toe is facing either to the left or right when raised to
drink. If the toe points upward, an air bubble forms in
the toe and forces the beer out, all over the drinker.
If the toe points downward it is difficult to empty
the beer from the bottom of
the boot. Please note that beer
steins are available for purchase
in our gift shop but cannot be
purchased in the restaurant or
utilized for drinking on premises.
We encourage you to purchase a
six-pack of your favorite Hofbräu
beer with your boot stein and
enjoy a truly authentic Bavarian
experience at home. Prost! And
please drink responsibly!
1 Liter and 2 Liter Boot Steins are now available for
purchase at the Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas Gift Shop or
online at www.HofbrauhausShop.com

memorable impact that touches your
heart and lasts a lifetime. With their
unmistakable sound “The Original
Steirerland Echo” always strives to be
one of these bands.
Their critically acclaimed Oberkrainer
sound is the result of their combined
musical talent. This band, which includes
Otto Krammer (Guitar), Christian Meyer
(Accordion), Herbert Novak (Baryton),
Rudi Kasparides (Trumpet) and Andreas
Spreng (Clarinet) creates something
special every time they are on stage.
This talented group of musical veterans
has been touring and playing national
celebrations for years. In fact, “The
Original Steirerland Echo” first rose
to critical acclaim here in the United
States by headlining a large Oktoberfest
celebration in Florida in 1991 which
eventually led to more tours of the
United States including California, Texas
and New York. And now, during February,
“The Original Steirerland Echo” will play

ne of the most exciting events of 2007 was when the cast
of BITE dropped in to perform a deliciously evil and
provocative keg tapping in our beer hall. During the keg
tapping the cast proved that beauty is much more than skin deep
as they dazzled the audience with their talent and their knowledge
of how to tap a keg. Once the keg was tapped we welcomed the
whole cast to sit down and enjoy a traditional Bavarian meal and
delicious Hofbräu brews. Everyone had a great time and we look
forward to having the cast of BITE back soon.
BITE features an exciting storyline told through classic rock songs
of the 1970’s, 1980’s and 1990’s. Throughout the show, audience
members are chosen to become part of the adventure. The show
can be seen at the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino, please visit

with onions, oranges and apples. Place it, breast
downwards, on a rack in a baking pan. Add 2 cups
hot water, the leftover fruits, carrots, celery and
the giblets. Bake it at 350F for about 1:30 hours.

T
his month we are proud to feature
our newest chef from Northern
Germany, Maximilian Altman. Max has
only been here for three and a half months but
has already made a big impact as our “Chef de
Partie” (station chef.) Though still learning the
ins and outs of our kitchen, Max helps with
production, food expediting, banquet buffets,
and anywhere else he is needed.
employee spotlight
Max has always had a passion for food, so it
was only natural that he became a chef in his
native Frechen where he worked at Sonnenalp.
Then, in July, Max was here in Las Vegas on
vacation with his uncle and stopped by the
Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas for dinner. He loved the
food, the beer and the authentic Bavarian
atmosphere so much that his uncle suggested
he apply for a job here with us as a chef. Max
then met with Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas executives
including our Master Chef and was hired a few
days later.
Vegas has given him his first opportunity to do
so. In fact, at 22 years old, this is the first time
Max has lived outside of Germany!
Max feels great about his job here with us
because he loves introducing people to new
tastes and flavors and even though he is far
away from home, he is able to experience
some of his country’s native culture every day
at work.
Max thrives on the excitement of the
restaurant business and is passionate about
making sure our guests are happy and have a
truly authentic Bavarian experience daily.
