Sternburg is a super popular beer in Germany, especially on the east side of the country. It's flavorful, affordable, and a big part of Leipzig's culture. You can often find it in Berlin spätis for prices that, nowadays, range from 0,80€ to 1,50€ in fancier places. It's easily one of my favorite beers, and I was really happy to be able to visit the brewery for my birthday.

The Löffelfamilie is how this neon sign has been known to everyone in Leipzig since it was first lightened up in 1973. The non-official name can be translated as the Spoon Family. It is the only neon sign from East Germany that we ever saw, still standing in public like this.
