Les Brasseurs

A few weeks ago I was in Lausanne catching up with some good mates. I visited one of my fav’ bars called Les Brasseurs.

These guys serve bier either by the 0.5 litre glass or by the multiple litre. The last time I was here in May 2006, my group of buddies and I knocked back 10 litres. Not just one at a time, but the whole 10 is carried to your table & you are given your own tap to pour from. As you will see in the below photo:

Cool huh!! The bier itself is pretty good as well. There is a selection from Draught through to Blonde. I’ve had the blonde and a special “of the month” variety. The bier in itself probably only deserves a 3-4 but the experience of drinking that monster pipe of bier, well that bring this up to 4 Steins:

Lunchtime in Villars

Sunday was spent in the Swiss Alps, specifically the ski village and slopes of Villars. Lunch time was spent lying in the sun and indulging in an Erdinger Weißbräu. Much like my previous photo, it’s hard to take a bad shot of this bier (especially with the backdrop of the alps).

Erdinger is quite a light and refreshing hefeweißen and was exactly what I needed on the day. Still it’s not up there with a Schöefferhofer, I’ll still give this a good 3 stars: 3-beers-small

Froth Shadow

This is a photo of the head of my recently drunk Schöefferhofer. I just really liked how the external light caused the brands shadow to be shown on the froth.

I love this bier, so it gets: 4-beers-small
