D'oh: Warren Not Wayne

William Reed just reminded me that the original fabricator of the HOG is Warren, not Wayne. No wonder I can never successfully look him up.

William recommends following Warren's Instgram. You should check it out; Warren makes some impressive stuff. Not just giant hammers.

Saturday in Zoigl County Part 2, Neuhaus and Night 2 in Windischeschenbach Zoigl Trip - Part 10 of 13

This post is part of a 13 part series, if you want to start from the beginning, click here . Saturday in Zoigl County Part 2, Neuhaus and Night 2 in Windischeschenbach Zoigl Trip - Part 10 of 13 We ascended the hill for a long time until we finally reached (mostly) level ground in the town of Neuhaus. After a few blocks of houses, we encountered a (not open that night) Zoiglstube and Neuhaus’s Kommunbrauhaus. The brewhouse was easily identified by the sculpture outside. And I think there was a sign too. We reached a second Zoiglstube, Teicher Zoigl, that wasn’t supposed to be open but seemed to be open for a Red Cross fundraiser. Rich was laser focused on getting to Schafferhof Zoiglstube. So we passed by Teicher, with the thought of stopping back. Neuhaus was a really happening little town that Saturday night, with lots of people out on foot, with places to go and people to see. There was a Saturday night excitement that I haven’t really seen...

Friday in Oberpfalz Part 1, & the Zoigl Star: Zoigl Trip - Part 7 of 13

Friday in Oberpfalz Part 1, & the Zoigl Star Zoigl Trip - Part 7 of 13 Finally, after an appetizer of Munich posts, here's what you have (hopefully) been waiting for. Our D-bahn tickets gave us free metro rides in Munich for the day, but Billy and I were up early and had way more than enough time, so we hoofed it to Hauptbahnhof, the central train station. Being a true professional, Rich had our day fully scheduled out. We arrived early at the platform to get good seats on the Alex RE2 train, which did indeed fill up. We scored a set of four seats facing each other, and the almost two hour ride passed quickly and jollily. We got off at Wiesau, where we were to catch Bus 6276 to Waldhausen. The train and bus schedules were both a little out of whack that day and the station was under construction. After some confusion and running with baggage, we were on the...

Friday in Zoigl County Part 2, including Visiting a Communal Brewhouse, & the Zoigl Beer “Style” Zoigl Trip - Part 8 of 13

This post is part of a 13 part series, if you want to start from the beginning, click here . Friday in Zoigl County Part 2, including Visiting a Communal Brewhouse, & the Zoigl Beer “Style” Zoigl Trip - Part 8 of 13 We had a little time to settle into our rooms before we were to meet Ferdl at 6pm, for a tour of the Kommunbrauhaus (sometimes translating German into English is easy) in Windischeschenbach. Ferdl is a lifelong resident of Upper Palatinate (aka Oberpfalz). Rich and Ferdl met when the tours they were each leading crossed paths. Ferdl, now a very vigorous 70something, did some brewing earlier in life. Ferdl borrowed the brewhouse key from someone in town. The tour of the communal brewhouse was a true highlight of the trip. Sometimes it really helps to know people who know people who know people. Stepping into the brewhouse was like stepping back in time, while also being firmly in the present, and the future since they don’t fix what a...
