The Zoller-Hof brewery is a privately run brewery from Sigmaringen , where beers and other beverages are produced.

history

The brewery was founded by Carl Fidelis Graf in 1845 in front of the city walls of Sigmaringen. Due to the favorable location, it was possible to establish good contacts with the princely house of Hohenzollern . His son Hermann Graf introduced electric lights to the brewery in the 1890s. His son Paul Graf built a new brewery. To this day, this building is the core of the brewery. He invested in compression refrigeration machines and changed the way beer was made by doing without whipped ice and allowing year-round cooling.

His son Hermann and brother-in-law Alexander Fleischhut survived the chaos of war with the brewery and invested in brewing and storage cellars and the construction of a bottle filling plant.

After studying brewing at the Weihenstephan Science Center , Peter Fleischhut joined the brewery in the 1960s. Until he left the brewery due to illness in 2002, he rebuilt the brewery several times. With 45 employees, his daughter Claudia Sieben, the current owner in the sixth generation, and managing director Ralf Rakel today produce and sell beers and non-alcoholic beverages worldwide. In addition to Germany, which accounts for the largest part of total sales, these include other European countries, China and Russia.
