"Location Kuck net en de Atlas un verjäss och your compass for me satin without two-sleep en Mennesch en de Äfel. At the outbreak of the Wingertsberg volcano 200,000 years ago, a huge lava flow went south, on which Mendig and the volcano brewery are now standing. Today, Mendig is understated on an area of almost 3 km2 to a depth of 30 meters. In the brewery is the deepest beer cellar in the world. The beer is stored and fermented in 153 stages deep under the earth's surface in the historic Basaltfelsenkeller. Extensive parking spaces for buses, cars and also for campers are available for free. Ambience A large beer garden leads to the glass brewery. Along a volcano shop offering small snacks such as beer fires, liqueurs, beer bread or souvenirs, you can go to the big guest rooms. There is room at large long tables for numerous bus groups. We're still on a table for 6 people. The rooms are fully occupied, there is a great drive, a brewhouse atmosphere. With the decoration everything naturally turns around beer like e.g. a large old barrel filling machine in the middle of the room. Service The service staff has all hands to do until the bus companies are ready. There is hardly time for a friendly word in between, everything has to go fixed and mistakes do not stay out. Food and drink We try the fresh volcanic beer specialities in light and dark (3,50 € . For food, the Volcano Post Zeitung (spoke card Steaks, Eifler Gaumenschmaus and regional brewhouse kitchen are offered. We're picking the beer bonnet. Filled spit roast with mustard sauce, pommes and salad (11,90€). The mustard sauce could have been a bit stronger, the meat was nicely tender. The second dish of the meat skewer 300g with various pieces of meat with BBQ sauce (12,20€ was very dry to slightly burned and the roasted potatoes (3,00€ had seen the pan, only from one side. The Eifler potato soup in the terrine with sausage insert and volcanic bread (6.90€ somehow lacked the special. We were looking for something special. Was it the Digestiv, the original Eifelgeist or Eifelfeuer (each 2,50€ . No, nothing was lit here too. Last attempt, the volcano outbreak. Vanilla ice cream with raspberries and cream in a volcano 0.1 L beer rod (2.90€). The raspberries cold and above spray cream. Result of experience gastronomy: The volcano has long escaped, the kitchen no longer sprays before ideas"
