A coworker directed us to a great German beer bar this weekend (thanks, Rene!).  Loreley in the Lower East Side has a great selection of German beers, especially Kölsch and Pilsner.  The Gaffel Kölsch was delicious and crisp, and the Jever Pisner was one of the best I’ve ever had.  But the hands-down winner of the evening was the  Spaten Oktoberfest  Ur-Märzen, in all of it’s amber malty deliciousness.  I know it’s a classic beer, but I feel like I’ve discovered a wonderful secret.  Prost!
