Würst Bier Hall
Bavarian Pretzels, Haus Beer Cheese
Smoked Buffalo and Cheddar Sausage, Peppers, Onions, French Bread
Kuchen, Vanilla Ice Cream
Located in Downtown Fargo and apparently popular enough with locals to have spawned a second location it was around 2:00pm that Würst Bier Hall was found fairly quiet, the lunch crowd having just cleared out and vintage music videos playing on televisions throughout the space.
Open now for just under five years, the promise of an extensive Beer list paired to an “Oktoberfest” atmosphere immediately evident upon entry, it was seated outside the main hall at a picnic table where an unkempt server offered greetings, his mannerism pleasant enough but clothing and grooming making it seem as though he had just gotten up from a long night of partying.
Featuring imported Lager, Hefeweissen and Lambic alongside some American Craft Ales with extensive tasting notes, the scope of Taps as well as Bottles admittedly quite impressive, it was turning to reasonably authentic German Cuisine that decisions were made, the giant Pretzel felt probably to be a bit much for just one while three salted Batons intended to be dipped in Beer Cheese were thick, chewy and glistening with Butter.
Sad to see that Würsts and Sausages are not made on-site, though some do come from North Dakota, it was setting aside more common varieties that a $9.75 “Exotic” comprised of Buffalo and Cheddar was selected, the Casing snappy and interior nicely ground with bits of Cheese throughout while housemade Kuchen offered good Custard but a soggy Crust that was done no favors by already part-melted store-bought Ice Cream.
