Bierhaus review

On Saturday I stopped by the newly opened Bierhaus for a few mid-afternoon liters.  Despite its weak location (3rd and 45th), this place has a lot to offer: 

5 varieties of Hofbrau - didn't even know 5 varieties existed. The Original Lager, Hefe Weizen, Dunkel (my all time favorite brew), Dunkel Weizen (on the list for next visit), and Bock
A large open space with a dozen or so communal picnic tables in the traditional fashion of Munich's Hofbrahaus. Also a massive skylight in the center to provide a bright atmosphere

There's also a big deck which overlooks 3rd ave, an ideal spot on nice days
Place was packed at around 3pm but the liters were kind of pricey at $16 each. I'm thinking this place suits large groups - the communal tables can get fun and rowdy.  But if you're looking for a spot with a less mid-towny feel, I'd stick to Zum Schneider on C and 7th.  Liters run $10-14 and the food is absolutely amazing.
