Altstadt Brewery – American
Steeped in the charm of a grand Bavarian estate, this destination brewery invites guests to linger over golden lagers amidst soaring ceilings and rustic stone accents that evoke the spirit of the Old World. The kitchen bridges the gap between European tradition and Southern comfort, serving up everything from crispy, salt-dusted pretzels and savory flammkuchen to decadent shrimp and grits and buttery crab cakes. Every visit feels like a spirited celebration of craft and culture, where the aroma of sizzling sausages and wood-fired dough fills the air to create a warm, communal dining experience.
