Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Anyone ever popped into either of these places? Would you recommend one over the other? Doesn't look like there's any outside seating at the first place...any at the 2nd? As always...many thanks. http://www.zumschneider.com/beers.htm http://www.loreleynyc.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Weizen, what the hell you going to NYC for? Don't you know that city's fulla Democrats and dangerous liberal-types? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7/4 Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Some friends were trying to get me to hang at Zum Schneider once, but I had to work early the next day. It's on a corner and the doors are wide open in good weather so you might as well be outside. You get the heat, humidity, traffic noise... all the things that make NYC so romantic in the Summer time. I've performed in that neighborhood a lot. Be sure to talk polytix with the locals, they'll love you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7/4 Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Never noticed the Loreley, the lower east side (in this case, almost Soho/Chinatown). Another fine place to share you political views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you know that city's fulla Democrats and dangerous liberal-types? No problem, Ghost!! I arm-twisted Albertson into issuing some sort of special Dem issue 'safe passage' i.d. badge. It's a little clunky lookin' but it'll do the trick!! Edited September 5, 2004 by Son-of-a-Weizen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Zum Schneider is an excellent place...as you said, open to the outside and all...which, along with that row of nice blue Hofbrau table umbrellas outside, gives the place a real european feel. The manager is from Munich.....and the bartender from Dortmund...nice guys. And the beer is outstanding -- 10 brews and the taps were flowing like mad on a Sunday night. You KNOW it's a serious place when they DON't have the obligatory Becks on tap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see, I went to the big march, then picked up groceries at Ave C & 8th about 5:00 PM, walked right past the tables "zum Schneider" and crossed C at 6th Street to get to my house!!!

Guess it depends how long you spent grocery shopping? I arrived between 5:30 and 6:00....stood in a corner nook to the right of the bar and popped out to the sidewalk 3 or 4 times for a Camel. Damn, I shoulda worn my black 'Eat Flaming Death' T-shirt down there.....surely would have caught your eye. I was down there for 3+ hours anyway...enough time to drain Ein Maß Jever Pils...Ein Maß Weihenstephan HefeWeizen and then the odd Hofbräu to keep things going. Funny thing though...the website is loaded with all sorts of pics.....but they don't have a single outdoor shot taken from across the street which is odd because it's an attractive looking scene. Well Maren, if you happen to 'snag' one of those umbrellas during your next late night walk-by.....come election day, I might even pull a West Palm Beach number for ya and punch the wrong chad.

Matthew Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 But am I reading right?? $14.00 for a large Schneider Weisse, a wheat beer?? Yikes, how much for a Bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted September 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Yep....you can put a serious dent in the 'ol wallet at that place real quick...but the thing is, that litre Maß is almost 3 of our 12 oz'ers...and coming out of the keg is far superior to anything out of a bottle. So, if you're drinking 3 bottles of Bud, Heineken or Corona at alot of places you're gonna hit that ceiling and beyond. Heck, over at Jazz Standard they sell that Schneider Weisse in the .5 L bottles for $9.00......so you'd drop $18 for a Maß! Now that's insane! The $10 Loewenbrau Maß is a pretty good deal.
