Andechs brewery and monastery day trip

Now that winter seems to be over, temperatures are rising, and Beer Garden season is rapidly approaching (If not already here)
Let's see if we can get a good group of us together to officially start the Andechs season 2007.

Proposed dates are Saturday 21st or 28th July.
EDIT: I meant Saturday 21st or 28th April
EDIT 2: The date is now finalised for Saturday 28.Apr.2007

Please use the sign-up sheet if you intend to come.

As usual we will meet-up in the ticket hall of Hauptbahnhof around 10:30am and take the next avail. S5 to Herrsching around 10:45am.

Sounds lovely, but jeez July's a long way off! Am interested, however will see!

If I hit andechs this year, I hope to do it before July! Besides, those two weekends may already be out for me... End of school stuff for the kids ...

July 28th is the Munich Hash house harriers 400 hash weekend, we were planning something for that day.

Mid-July would be a good 2nd or third trip date, but...May 19th or 26th sounds more like it for a first TT trip of the year to Andechs.

Darn - I have GOT to get to the hash more often... totally missed that bit of info. Yup. Rules out andechs in any event.

DK, I am assuming that you mean 21 or 28 April. Just because April and July follow the same pattern does not mean that they are interchangeable .

DK...

Change the record... jeeeezzz man, you went there last year!

Interested in going as well, but hopefully earlier than July!

I'd be interested as well but I don't want to wait till July! 28th April sounds good!

The first trip of the year to Andechs is usually in April, why wait till July?

The usual/traditional organiser, pootle, is currently on a tram - think the sign-up list and structure for the 2007 season are already there in principle but I'll remind him today, ok? He's away for a bit but Andechs is the sort of TT day out that it is good to have a sign-up sheet for.
Then everyone can vote for dates probably nearer than July.

Plus seeing mods do something other than rename and delete is a fine thing.

EDIT: Oops he's got no time due to hols etc., other mods, can you do summat? Ta. Oh sign-up sheet is there already in first post? Great.

Sounds like holiday stress is getting to you!

Are only traditional organisers allowed to initiate things?
Here I was thinking TT was a free for all !

It Should say: APRIL not JULY... Sorry

And if you want to get technical, Crawlie started last years Andechs Thread.

PS: Yes, I already have a Sign-up list. The above link does work

If you want a sign-up list, you need a member of the management to get involved. It is that simple.

DK had a sign-up list to begin with. Its that simple.

Not until it was switched on dear.
The mods do that. Not me, nor DK, only mods.
Which they did - hence my edit.

But hey, you want to get all narky? Fine. The sign-up sheet is there now, that's the main thing. That a 2007 mock-up was already in existance previously isn't worth getting into a flap about as the general public won't have known that, but I did.

Yes dear. Glad you have sorted it all out for us.

It was was never switched off... It's always been there. It worked even before I started the thread..
But it works, so who cares.. Drop it.

Whatever.

And as i was the first person to respond to the thread I think i would know LOL.

I can make the 28th not the 21st (that is a hash saturday and I have to work).

Ahh Work... gotta love it

Andechs till 1500, then head out to the hash at 1700.. No probs.. We'll even let you run down the Mountain back into town

nope, gets too tight, I don't like rushing just for beers.

I know you didn't say "Just beer"...

28th sounds good all round.

If everybody is happy with the 28th, then I'll get the date fixed and made Perm.

So.. 28th April - Going Once!!!

I want/need the whole experience.

21st if possible.

TWICE!

Another vote for the 28th.

We're out of town on the 21st.

Bump...

I'd like to get a deff. date by 1600, so if your looking to go please voice your input..

Sold!!

28th April it is...

Meet-up time is 1030 in the main ticket hall at Hbf. if your late, your riding by yourself

I started it with Pootle's permission...

EDIT: laaaaammmmmmmmmmmee!!! (ala Cartman)

Anyway sounds like it will be a good time. Is it hiking/walking up and taking the bus back down? This will be a first for me! (yay still a newbie to something)

I'll drink extra 50 cent beers in Slovakia to make up for missing this.

can you bring food with to the Andechs beergarten?

I'd love to go, but I'll bet out of town until May 5. I guess we could always have more than one trip

I think you can in the lower, real Biergarten. Not sure about the tables on top, but why not?

Yes you most certainly can bring your own food. We covered a whole table with food a couple of years back.

thanks, only ever see photos of people eating their food, so I wasn't sure, as not every beergarten in the same.
edit- and a nice little bump too!

so, any ideas what people are bringing to eat on saturday?
Am willing to maybe make a pasta salad.

Hmm, pasta salad!

Thst a reminder, that if you are planning to go please use the sign-up sheet so others can see if/how we can group people on a 5 person ticket, or if somebody
has room on their ticket.

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but if you are organizing a big group to Andechs, you should know that the s-bahn only goes to Gaemering now where you have to catch a bus to Herrsching. Takes much longer. They are doing repairs on the tracks.

Well that sux... But atleast their still running some kind of service...

can we take a BOB train?

I will bring some cheap prosecco for the train/bus ride, and will make a pasta salad and maybe some shortbread.

No you can't take a BOB. Or, to me more accurate, you could take a BOB but you would end up further away from Andechs than if you didn't.
I might well pop in for an hour or so but shall be under my own steam so won't sign up. I owe DK a large drink anyhow...

There are 2 ways to get to Andechs. 1 Being a bit longer than the other.

Us early birds will be on the 1st one. Those that would like to catch some more Beauty sleep
can take the 2nd option (Which is also 20min shorter in travel time and drops you off at the bottom
of the Andechs Hill).

I will be on the first one, and will drag some other people along as well.
We can figure out the tickets on saturday, as I have a Isar9 for the innenraum.
