Having had a meal in a winery, I thought it would be unfair not to do the brewery justice. We went to Duckstein Brewery, which shared their estate with a winery called Saracen Estate. The place was bustling with people and was a very classy and modern sort of place. The waitperson all friendly and professional. The restrooms were one of the only few high-tech restrooms I'd ever seen. However, it was to me lacking a certain personal touch and much too commercialised.
I ordered the Eisbein, a large pork shank served with mashed potato and sauerkraut. My accomplice had the Kassler smoked pork cutlets with German potato salad and rye bread. The portion of the Eisbein was massive. I was too full by the end of the meal, and not in a satisfied, rub-your-belly, good kind of full. It was more like, I'm-such-a-greedy-pig, I-can't-believe-I-ate-all-that kind of full. It was quite ugly.
