Today I'd like to introduce you to a fantastic upcoming event – keywords: “Summer. Wine. Bar.” Sounds pretty good, doesn't it? I'd like to recommend the Franconian wine bar in conjunction with the night beer garden, which takes place annually (this year for the fifth time) alongside the open-air cinema on Tumblingerstraße in the old cattle market, as a great place to visit.

This year, it's that time again! Starting June 4th, the "Frankenweinbar" event will be open every evening from 6:00 PM. This fantastic wine bar is back for the third time at this popular event, showcasing its excellent wines. I was lucky enough to be there last year, watching a film and, of course, sampling the different wines at the Frankenweinbar throughout the evening. So, I highly recommend it if you haven't yet experienced the night beer garden and the bar. I'll definitely be stopping by on the coming summer days to enjoy a lovely evening – including a movie (for €9 per person) and the night beer garden.

Here in the night beer garden, you can enjoy a wonderful selection of sparkling Seccos (related to Prosecco – a wine that has been carbonated, unlike Sekt, which has not undergone a second fermentation and has a lovely effervescence) and sparkling wines from local winemakers until August 16, 2015. You can also watch exciting films and enjoy beautiful summer hours. Fresh and fruity summer wines from the three winegrowers' cooperatives Divino, Winzer Sommerach, and Winzergemeinschaft Franken eG are available. What I particularly liked, and what is also remarkable this year, is that the cooperatives clearly work together according to the motto "Together we are strong!" Hundreds of winegrowing families deliver their vineyard harvests centrally, ensuring that excellent wines are produced and professionally marketed.

Extensive wine selection at the Munich night beer garden at the Franconian wine bar

In total, over 20 fantastic wines from the three aforementioned winegrowers' cooperatives await visitors at the popular nighttime beer garden of the Frankenweinbar. The wines are all of perfect quality, chilled to perfection, and offer everything from delicately fruity to fresh and crisp, guaranteeing the right taste for every wine lover. Each wine is available by the glass or by the bottle. I myself am more of a white wine drinker (for example, I thought the Juventa – Pinot Blanc for €5/0.2l glass was excellent), but I highly recommend trying them all there. I was amazed at how different the wines taste and that there are also great red wines (for example, the 2013 Frankenseele – Domina QbA dry, also for €5/0.2l glass).

This year, for the third year in a row, the Franconian winegrowers' cooperatives are bringing their "Night Beer Garden Favorites" to Munich's Viehhof, hopefully once again convincing some of you beer garden and bar patrons of their quality. I'll definitely be there. It's no surprise to me that not only the friendly bar crew is excited about the start of the open-air cinema with its beer garden and Franconian wine bar, but also that the number of wine-loving, movie-loving, and adventurous guests increases every year. (The film selection is also fantastic and can be viewed online!) I can't recommend a visit highly enough. You can access the grounds, the beer garden, and the wonderful wine bar even without a cinema ticket. According to the organizers, every year one or two visitors fall in love with various wines, and many happily take a bottle or two home with them – myself included. 🙂

Open-air cinema in the old cattle yard with delicious wine

On-site, you can enjoy a wide variety of delicious wines from the Franconian wine bar during the film on the 16x8 meter screen and also during the 15-minute intermissions. Feel free to sample them until you find the perfect wine for the evening. You certainly won't go thirsty here. Of course, you can also enjoy the wine directly at the bar, but I always took my own glasses to the cinema (the deposit per glass is €5) and then refilled them during the intermission.

So, once again: Be sure to stop by from June 4th onwards – it's not far off now – for the opening of Munich's popular open-air cinema with its nighttime beer garden, when the Frankenweinbar will once again open its doors and invite you to enjoy some pleasant hours with delicious wines. (Snacks and ice cream, etc., will also be available on site.) A great atmosphere quickly develops, wine glasses are passed around the bar in abundance, and the cheerful mood in the cozy beer garden quickly rises. Overall, the open-air cinema is a fantastic place to relax and enjoy yourself, and thanks to the Frankenweinbar, it's also a culinary must-do. By the way, you can also purchase any of the wines you like for future visits. Just ask the friendly bar staff, and they'll give you the contact information.

The Franconian wine bar and the night beer garden are easily accessible by public transport – which I would definitely recommend, as you're sure to stumble upon this fantastic wine bar 😉 – via subway lines 3 and 6, Poccistraße stop. Since I'm already familiar with the event – and some of the wines – I can tell you: a great summer mood – weather permitting – is guaranteed, and wine in a beer garden works really well. 🙂 The bar is open daily until 1:00 a.m.
