@fdsc460 I love this tomato soup. Not too sour, not too sweet. Fully taste of tomato with other spices. They also have a corn bread in this soup. We eat it with the bread in the middle basket. Awesome combination. Love it.

Redler beer+Stuffed chicken breast. I love the red wine onion sauce and what is in the stuffed chicken. The potatoes cake is very interesting. A bit grainy and spices taste. @fdsc460

@fdsc460 The beer I tried last night is a Redler. For me: sweeter than a wheat beer. It has a lemonade in it. The alcohol is about 5.4 %. The IBU (International bitterness unit) is relatively low compared to other German beers.

@fdsc460 The traditional dessert of Nürnberg: The gingerbread. It can last very long (like a year). Have a lot of spices + ginger. Sweet and Yummy!!

[Jess JuniorPSU @JessKaoth]

@fdsc460 The whiskey in Nürnberg need to be kept in this barrel for 3 year and 1 day! You can order and label it right here (with a cool design). Then 3 yrs, 1 day you come back to get it. Woohoo

@fdsc460 Nürnberg food: Nürnberg sausage, beer, sauerkraut. Fun fact: The reason why Nürnberg sausage is very tiny because people tried slide the sausage through the key hole during the war. And that makes sausage become smaller and smaller.

@fdsc460 The WIT, Belgium beer has a special enzyme that can produce the banana flavor. In Belgium, the spices were added, but in Germany, other spices (coriander) cannot be added because of a purity law.

@fdsc460 interesting food: blood sausage. It contains pork blood, pork meat, minced onion, and other spices. (The middle one) When you bite it, it has a strong taste of cooked blood, ham, and the outstanding onion taste.

@fdsc460 A man in a hop bag was filling and pressing the hops so that they get a very tight bag. The bag was rounded. However, nowadays the bag is in a square shape.

We visit the oldest brewery in the world (since1040). Germany has purity law: beer can only contains: wheat(or barley), water, and hops. The purpose of this law: ensure the consumer safety +collect the hop tax. The bottom fermentation=vertical tank @fdsc460

Maximator is a local German beer. Sweet and strong beer. Unfortunately, it runs out today, so I tried Beir hell. Not really bitter and not sweet. @fdsc460

Hefeweizen is a German-style beer made from German beer mold+wheat malt+unique yeast. Amber color+50% malted wheat. German eat this beer with seafood, Chèvre, key lime pie. I taste this one, love it! @fdsc460

Schwarztee (black tea)German tea. The traditional way of drinking is using strainer, tea pot, infuser, not in the style of tea bag. Fun fact is Himbeer Blätter Tee (raspberry leaf tea) was used as a pregnancy tea to tone uterus, prepping it for woman to pregnant. @fdsc460

@fdsc460 Griessbrei/ German Semolina Pudding is a German traditional dessert. It included milk, vanilla, sugar, and semolina + jam. (semolina = flour made from durum wheat). The cool thing about this dessert is it's thick and creamy!

My favorite chocolate brand since I was young is Ritter Sport. This brand is actually from Germany! I love 50% Cacao. I am excited to explore Ritter Sport in Germany this time. The fun fact is it's super yummy but I ate all in once and realized it's more than 500 Cal. @fdsc460

[Jess JuniorPSU @JessKaoth]

I am a big fan of chocolate. When I was young, I wrote down my dream list as traveling and exploring the chocolate taste around the world. Although, it is super hard to accomplish this goal, however, I am going to taste the chocolate in GERMANY!! Woooo!
