When it comes to the quality of the fermentation flavor, I believe Andechs is nearly unmatched. That's where their beers really shine, IMO.

FYI - the church pictured is not a cathedral. It's a bog standard baroque country church like one sees often in our parts

I ordered German Lager X on a strong suspicion it's the Kloster Andechs strain. The monastery is atop what is considered a holy mountain. Three years ago, I hiked up it to find my favorite doppelbock of all time (my profile photo depicts me enjoying it). More recently, they've started distributing to the US, and I had a bottle of their dunkelweizen. It was the most surrealistically richly malty example of the style I've ever tasted.
Anyway, I just got email today saying the yeast has shipped and should arrive by this weekend, just in time for me to brew a Helles. I don't normally like using special release yeasts because it makes the beer difficult to reproduce. But I figured what the hell.
Here are some photos of the view from the Andechs biergarten and the cathedral there.
