ABOUT THIS BREWERY

The brewery started in 2004, brewing small batches in a workshop on Bärenschanzstaße. Moving again in 2007 to a larger space before the new brewery building was completed in 2016 in Nuremberg-Höfen. With larger tanks, the brewery started to brew specialty beers alongside longstanding favorites. Every year the brewery has an anniversary party in May to celebrate another year of Schanzenbräu brewing.
