Lindenbräu (Gräfenberg)

Lindenbräu (Gräfenberg)

With a heavy focus on local ingredients, they brew terroir driven beers from traditional styles to the modern hop driven Fritzle. Add to that, careful restoration of heritage brew equipment and the optional hike of five breweries - all in one place.
