I absolutely love the environment in this place. People go here to be loud and have fun. The outside seating is great and the big hall is s great experience.
If you want to hold a conversation with people and chit-chat...not the place for you.
Beer: I just ordered one without asking questions first...mistake, maybe the first time in my life I ordered a beer and just refused to drink it. I learned after that they have a sampler, if you are not sure, try the sampler first. It will save you some trouble.
So my review for this place is mixed, IF you are looking for a loud place where people are having a good time with good food, do it, I just caution you to sample the beers before ordering a whole stein.
