Quality of Drinks
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The brewery’s own wares, a compact but high quality range, along with a good selection of schnapps. Limited alternatives. All the beers are worth trying but the dark beer Schwarzer Adler, named after the pubs original name, is a regional classic.
Style/
Décor
❤️❤️❤️
A sizeable, renovated Gaststätte with open plan Bierstube and a courtyard for sunny days. Decorated traditionally, execution in a slick way, but lacking much quirk or flair.
Atmosphere/
Character
❤️❤️❤️
Local life and occasional travellers stopping off, a sense of direct hospitality from the tapster and a family feel even with what is not exactly an ad hoc operation. Lacking character when quiet.
Amenities/
Events

Meals, snacks, merchandise, outdoor seating
Value For Money❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good value for food and drink
DescriptionAn excellent brewery a short bus ride from Bamberg offering a Bierstube and courtyard for drinks. The beers are standout examples of their styles for the area and delivered in an authentic manner in pristine condition. All are worth trying but the dark beer Schwarzer Adler, named after the pubs original name, is a regional classic. The surroundings are pleasant but undramatic, meaning the atmosphere may be a bit short on quiet days, but there is an inescapable homespun charm to it, even for an operation which has its own merchandise. Good produce, good hospitality and good prices in a pleasant environment. (Added August 2023)
