Bierstube in pictures
A week ago we made note of Mike Naessens' Bierstube Tsingtau getting super-close at 206 Market; at the time, the Eulogy owner was shooting for Feb. 3, aka First Friday, to debut his German beer hall, which'll also boast a Sino-themed bottom floor in the near-ish future.

A week ago we made note of Mike Naessens' Bierstube Tsingtau getting super-close at 206 Market; at the time, the Eulogy owner was shooting for Feb. 3, aka First Friday, to debut his German beer hall, which'll also boast a Sino-themed bottom floor in the near-ish future. (Just call her Bierstube for now.) Naessens actually ended up swinging the doors open a couple days early to get his staff's feet wet — dropped in last night for a few beers and a few photos. The bones of the space, last Old City Asian Bistro, are pretty much the same, but the room's been sharply dressed for Oktoberfest. While Deutsch is done right on the draft system (your Jevers, your Weihenstephaners, etc.), Naessens plans on serving plenty of interesting Euro choices beyond Germany — we peeped the LoverBeer Madamin, a friendly Italian sour, and the Brit-brewed Meantime IPA. Chef Richard DiPietro's quite-Teutonic menu is live, too, though we went gringo and copped a plate of his honey hot wings. It's worth mentioning that we spotted nary a dirndl in the house. Sorry, gents.
Naessens is focusing primarily on this new project and Eulogy for the time being; his nearby Beneluxx Tasting Room (33 S. Third St.) is no longer operating on an everyday basis, but he continues to rent out the space on Friday and Saturday nights for wine/beer tastings and events.
