| Hallertau - the hop country The largest single hop-growing area in the world is located in the middle of Bavaria (in Germany) -
not far away from Munich (the capital of Bavaria - well known for the Oktoberfest and the Hofbräuhaus),
|
|
| Ingolstadt
(a 1200 year old town, which is also known for the car-manufacturer Audi) and
the famous and historical city Regensburg.
But in the Hallertau is also the Benedictine
abbey of Weltenburg: the oldest monastery in Bavaria which was founded
around 600 AD, and which is perhaps one of the oldest breweries in the
world. But there are a lot of other breweries and places of interest in
the hop-country. A lot of nice pictures and information about the hop-country you can find at http://www.hopfenland-hallertau.de |
