Gourmet fare meets traditional Bavarian Gemütlichkeit – a combination equally favoured by locals and visitors. Some culinary tips to get you started: BRÄUSTÜBERL BEER HALL TEGERNSEE In 1817, Bavarian King Max I. Joseph acquired the Benedictine monastery and brewery from the Baron of Drechsel. Today, the brewery belongs to the House of Wittelsbach and is run by the Duchess Maria Anna, a daughter of Bavarian Duke Max – and its beers are famous across Germany. Tegernseer Hell is in fact a little piece of heaven: the German word hell denotes a light-coloured lager. Also popular is the export brand Tegernsee Spezial. The ducal brewery recently celebrated its 333rd year. A visit to this ancient vault with its historic murals and lively chatter among local farmers, beer enthusiasts, mountain bikers, traditionalists and celebrities is a must during your stay.
