Solid, but not worth $4.50 a piece. Quality taste, but average size. (The same review I get about my weiner.)

A little bit too much kraut or mustard (which is similar to dusseldorf. Definitely not a spicy brown). A little less of one or both would help...a lot of it fell off the brat and there was still plenty left on.

The brat is grilled versus simmered.

And the delicious as always vanilla malt and cheese fry

that's an insane amount of kraut

and yea 4.50 does seem a bit steep, but then again aren't their hot dogs over 3 ?

You can't even see the brat on there. Someone needs to have a chat with Juan.

either the polish bun is too large or the brat is puny. not only bad kraut to sausage ration but bad bread to sausage ratio as well

whenever i watch Beat Bobby Flay and the challenge is a sandwich, he always takes some bread out of the bun so the ratio is good

You can easily fix too much bread. Just tear a little bit off the ends, or between bites. No big deal. Which I did...some bread didn't make it into my stomach.

If the 3 Wisemen were more personable, maybe folks like Eaglo and OKC would come back.

Eaglo shows up every now and again...

Kid Cairo...his sensitivity issues make one Julie DiCaro look completely reasonable.

that's an offensive amount of kraut.

And a pretty massive lunch for a normal sized fella, let alone IMU. Large malt? Good for you man, I think I gained a pound just looking at the pictures here.

Any amt. of kraut is too much.

I think I'll give them a shot, considering Berghoff isn't doing it's outdoor Octoberfest this year & Christkindlmarkt is too far off.

This guy gets it

I could make a meal out of kraut alone, just as my ancestors did.

I would not shit in a hole in the ground later that evening as they did though.

cleaning out my grandma's crawl space i find her old kraut tubs.

homemade garage kraut! she was 50 years too late. could've marketed it to hipster restaurants now as artisan housemade kraut.
