As another sudsy St. Patrick&#8217;s Day passes, another pilgrimage seems apropos, then: a quest in search of the world&#8217;s finest craft beers. We&#8217;ve tapped our in-house expert to guide us through an exploration of brewing&#8217;s boldest pioneers \u2014 hopping from monastery to metropolis to Michigan to identify the best beers and discover what makes them so extraordinary.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:1px;border-top:3px double #ccc;margin-top:30px;margin-bottom:60px;display:block;clear:both\"><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Andechser Doppelbock Dunkel<\/h2>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Andechs, Germany | Doppelbock, 7.1% ABV, Klosterbrauerei Andechs<\/h5>\n<figure id=\"attachment_59214\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-59214\" style=\"width: 1440px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sintsixtus.be\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-59214 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/magazine.tablethotels.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Trappist.jpg\" alt=\"Sofitel Munich Bayerpost, Andechser Beer Garden (Image: Stefan Schuhbauer) &amp; Flushing Meadows\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1050\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-59214\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sofitel Munich Bayerpost, Andechser Beer Garden (Image: Stefan Schuhbauer) &amp; Flushing Meadows<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Doppelbock aficionados, look no further: this is German beer&#8217;s pinnacle, a monk-made, deeply rich and malty meal in a glass.

Nonetheless we encourage the search, as this heady brew&#8217;s famously complex character approaches the spiritual; spice notes balance perfectly with fruity depth, the product of multiple yeasts, all fortified by enough alcohol to warm you through on even the most frigid of Flanders nights. There&#8217;s a guesthouse for sampling, but be advised that they only reserve beer for pickup by phone, and demand far outpaces supply.<\/p>\n<p>Sobering as its history may be, nearby Ypres welcomes the tipsy traveler wholeheartedly with <a style=\"text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tablethotels.com\/en\/ypres-hotels\/main-street-hotel\">Main Street Hotel<\/a>, a jewel of a boutique with just six enchanting rooms.
