    If you visited Vordernberg in the early 1970's, you undoubtedly sampled the Gößer Bier in the Gasthof Grüber, which subsequently became the Gasthof zum Radmeister, but which has been closed for several years.

    On a recent nostalgic visit, I sought-out Herr Pfaller, the one-time owner, and have obtained the famous (or infamous) hotel Guest Book on long-loan. I still can't stop laughing at some of the, particularly RCTS, quotations.
    If you were one of those making such entries as "...my third visit, and my wife still hasn't found the beach", and would like a scan of your entries, please pm me, and I will try to oblige.
