Zymurgy had an article on pretzel making back in 2002. I believe it was by Herr Renner. Set my feet on the pretzel making path.

I'm in doppelbock/pretzel mode these days.  YUM!

Jeff's pretzel recipe is amazingly awesome and he let me put it on the Falcons website (http://archive.maltosefalcons.com/food/jeffrennerspretzels.php)

And the best one's I've ever done I' made with Spaten Optimator as the liquid!

Mine is my homebrewed doppelbock, "Generator" (formulated in my power plant days).
Alas, much more goes into me than the pretzels.

For soft brezlin (German for Pretzel) you need some Obadza. Do a search.  It will fill you up, and clog the artieries.  I love it.  Butter, soft stinky cheese, paprika, and some onions on the side.  Killer with a good lager.

Now were these made by the weaze or did weaze buy them and heat them up?

Made by Weaze, knotted by the Weazette.

Just noticed that a few minutes ago.  The food is arranged so the logo is visible.  Or maybe that jsut happened.  :)
