Julius Brantner Brothandwerk ★ 4.7
Julius Brantner Brothandwerk in Munich's Schwabing-Maxvorstadt has run a transparent organic bakery since April 2019, small regional product list.
Lye-dipped pretzel with a dark mahogany crust and a soft, salty interior. Munich's universal accompaniment to beer, Weisswurst and Obatzda. Eaten warm from breakfast through last beer call.
The pretzel, derived from monastic baking of the early Middle Ages, took its Bavarian form (Brezn) by the 19th century, with the distinctive lye dip giving the dark crust. Munich's Brezn is wider and softer than the northern Pretzel; it sits at every breakfast table, every beer-garden counter, and accompanies every Weisswurst order in the city.
