Augustiner Munich Light
A true and tried light lager that follows the old Bavarian Purity Laws of 1516 (meaning fillers or addons), this brew features pure hops, barley and wheat. A touch of floral and grassy hops make this a great beer to pair with any southern Germany dish- like our Schnitzel!

Ayinger Celebrator
An award winning doppelbock beer it tastes of velvet roasted malts and hints of dried fruits. It’s a year round brewed Ayinger and a staple within their portfolio. Unlike other doppelbock beers, Celebrator has very little residual sugar.

Invigorating and unique. BEMBEL-WITH-CARE Apfelwein meets chokeberry and guarana. ABV 4.7%. Gluten Free. Vegan.
Bitburger Pils (To-Go)
DAB
A True Dortmunder classic that is named simply from its origin in Dortmund, Germany. Dortmund was made capital of the Rhine-Westphalian and Netherlands Circle and part of the Medieval Hansa traders guild! This particular brew was founded in 1868 and continues to be a classic light lager that anyone will enjoy.

Eggenberg Urbock 23°
Twenty-three refers to the sugars in the beer prior to fermentation. The finished product is a doppelbock beer from Austrian tasting of orange and sherry. It is a boozy beer and we love drinking this with our smoked pork chop and smoked sausage dinner, Kassler Ripchen.

Flensburger Dunkel

Franziskaner Wheat
Unfiltered wheat beer from Germany. Try this will a tender veal weisswurst sandwich topped with apple-bacon sauerkraut. This is one of our favorite German Beers and something that we have always tried to keep in the rotation. It has been on our beer club board for over 35 years!

Hofbräu Dunkel
Hofbrauhaus literally means the “the court’s brewhouse” and is one of the largest breweries in Bavaria. Our kegs are imported from Munich, Germany and its Dunkel lager beer is a bottom-fermented brew that tastes of subtle malts, hoppiness, and a slightly roasted aftertaste.

Hofbräu Original
Hofbrau’s original German lager beer is a golden yellow that is full-bodied and slightly malted. Imported from Germany, this authentic and classic lager is a must-try.

Kostrizer Schwarzbier
Schwarzbiers, sometimes called black lagers, are drier and darker than German dunkels. The brewery located in Bad Kostritz, Germany has been producing schwarz beer for almost 500 years. Comparable to a Guiness Stout.

Leipziger Gose Bayerischer
Originating from Leipzig, Germany, it tastes of coriander and sea salt. A fermented beer that’s composed of 60% wheat and 40% barley malt, we recommend trying this with our Der Brau burger. One of the favorites on our Cleveland’s best beer list!

Paulaner Radler (lager + grapefruit)
A German Radler Beer is the perfect brunch or happy hour daytime drinking brew. Half grapefruit and half lager, it has a low ABV.
Pinkus Ur Pils

Reissdorf Kölsch
This is as close as we get to Budweiser and that actually tastes better than Budweiser! It’s our true and tested hair of the dog with no before or after taste. A top fermented beer that has been brewed in Cologne, Germany since 1894.

Schneider Weisse Aventinus
Arguably one of the world’s best beers. This doppelbock wheat tastes of typical Munich yeast; banana and yeast. With a slight taste of chocolate beer and spicy finish, it pairs perfectly with our Sauerbraten!

Schneider Weisse Hopfenweisse
First, this beer is 100% certified organic and also known as “Festweisse” in Germany. Schneider Weisse’s Tap 4, “Meine Festweisse,” began as the brewery’s signature Oktoberfest offered in Munich. Since then, this unfiltered wheat beer has varied year to year. What remains consistent is a refreshingly light beer with a slight lemon-citrus taste.
Schneider Weisse Original
This original wheat beer’s brewing permission was granted by King Ludwig in 1850. It is an unfiltered wheat beer, golden in color with aromas of banana and cloves, it tastes both fruity and spicy.
Schofferhofer Watermelon Mint

Spaten
With a taste that’s similar to Heineken and St Pauli Girl, the Spaten is a pale lager beer with slight bitterness from the hops that carries an aftertaste that pairs perfectly with our Potato Pancake Reuben. Enjoy it for only $3 during our Cleveland Happy Hour at the bar or on the patio!

Warsteiner Dunkel (TG)
Warsteiner Dunkel is a staple dark German beer. It is not bitter and tastes of coffee, malts, and even chocolate beer.

Belgian
Chimay Cent Cinquante 150 (Green Label, ABV 10%)
Chimay 150 is a celebratory beer to commemorate 150 years in Chimay’s brewery. A limited edition (150,000 bottles) of Chimay 150 was brewed for the very first time for the brewery’s 150th anniversary and Der Brauemiseter is one of two restaurants carrying this special brew. Chimay 150 is a refreshing beer, strong but refined, with a balanced flavor and floral scent, accompanied by aromas of dried fruits and spices.

Chimay Cinq Cents (White)
First brewed in 1966 by Rev. Father Theodore, it was his final contribution to the Chimay line of beers. With a typical golden color, a slightly hazy appearance topped with a fine foam that releases a bouquet of fruity esters and floral-hop aromas, this is an ideal patio-drinking beer.

Chimay Grande Réserve (Blue)
First launched in 1948 as a Christmas ale under the name “Blue Cap”, its reputation as a strong ale of the highest quality led to its year-round production. It’s remarkably dry with a hint of sweetness that’s derived from the highest quality of malts. Flavors of dates, fig, and pear are complemented by aromas of bread with a faint floral finish.

Chimay Grande Réserve Barrel Fermented (2018)

Chimay Première (Red)
The oldest of the Chimay beers, it’s a timeless classic and sweet harmony in a glass. Its mildly floral notes mix perfectly with spicy pepper and clove. The sweet, dark fruity finish features a touch of chocolate and caramel.
DeuS Brut des Flandres
The REAL champagne of beers… A Belgian strong ale. First brewed at Bosteels, transferred to the Champagne region of France were it is treated much like a champagne with the bottles inverted and the yeast expunged and bottle re-corked.

Kasteel Barista Chocolate Quad

Leffe Blonde
A pale abbey beer, with a full, sunny, golden color. It has a smooth and full-bodied taste and a rich creamy head. Like all the Leffe beers, it is a ’connoisseur’ beer that is always easy to drink.
Rochefort Tripel
Flavor of Belgian yeast, bread malt, musty grapes, light fruits, mild raisin, anise, light spices with a floral noise. We are Cleveland’s favorite German Restaurant, but every perfect imported beer list needs at least one true Belgian Trappist on its list!
St. Feuillien Grand Cru
Grand Cru is a speciality beer carefully crafted by Belgium’s St Feuillien Brewery. This extra-blond amber nectar masterpiece undergoes refermentation in the bottle, resulting in a beer endowed with unforgettable character. Grand Cru differs from other beers in the range by its absence of spices. Its full, white head is light and frothy, and when poured it creates a subtle lace effect. The very pale colour of Grand Cru lends clarity and brilliance to its body.

English & French Beers

Aspall Dry Cider
A lightly sparkling, elegant dry cider with a soft fragrant nose and earthy apple notes that captures the essence of an orchard. Best paired with pork, chili, or cheesy dishes, like our Schnitzel or Kassler Rippchen!

Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale
Still brewed with water from a Well that was first sunk over 250 years ago in the Yorkshire countryside, this Nut Brown Ale is a rich tipple with roasted accents, infused with hints of pecan and toffee. A wonderfully drinkable, exceptionally tasty brew, the Nut Brown Ale is also Vegan-friendly and suitable for any occasion!

Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout
Another Vegan-friendly option from Samuel Smith and similarly brewed, its fermentation creates an almost opaque, wonderfully silky, and smooth textured ale with a complex medium dry palate and bittersweet finish.
