Beer: Allgauer Fest Bier 5.5%


The Strandbar is an odd place. Dance classes going on in the open air, Berlin folk of all ages sat on deckchairs enjoying the view of museum island, over the river Spree. The beer (there is only one on draft on our visit) is the slightly over-strong and sickly Festbier. It is also flat, and for my wife, not at all drinkable. I manage mine.
Nice conversation with a friendly local woman who gives us some tips on the Christmas markets, and fun activities for children, convincing us to book a Christmas return trip with our lad.
