Delimitations

With the craft beer trend , small commercial breweries have emerged in the USA since the 1980s. With the corresponding alignment as a pub brewery , they are classified as brewpubs by the brewery association. On the other hand, the name Regional Craft Breweries is chosen. This trend is also beginning to develop in Germany with microbreweries offering special varieties.

They are mostly larger inns with appropriate equipment that want to promote the attractiveness of the location and the location or in tourist areas with their own range of beers - regionally or for a limited time - to promote sales. A pub brewery operates an active brewery, whereas a purely historical reference to a former brewery is sufficient for the brewery. A brewery can, but doesn't have to be, a brewpub.

Bräustüberl

The term Bräustüberl (also Bräustübl or Bräustüble ) refers to a pub connected to the brewery in Bavaria , Baden-Württemberg and parts of Austria , in which the self-brewed beer is served. It is very often owned by the brewery in question. The combination of brewery and pub is known in other parts of Germany as a brewery.

Regional particularities

Kinzweiler Pannes

"Pannhaus" or Ripuarian "Pannes" is the common name for a brewery in parts of the Rhineland . Here brewing beer was only allowed against a fee to the landlord in the Pannhaus. The name comes from the wort kettle, which is also called beer pan, beer kettle, brew kettle. Pannhäuser were also used as a court, as was the case for hereditary courts and taverns . The Kinzweiler Pannhaus was built in 1435. Further Pannhäuser in the Aachen area are in Dorff and Eilendorf .

A facility that is still often found in the traditional Cologne brewery, the Bräues , is the counter- bar , a counter-like construction in which the innkeepers monitor the catering operations. Accordingly, instead of a waiter , the Köbes usually works in breweries in Cologne, Düsseldorf or Krefeld . This profession can be traced back to the medieval brewery servant, who also served beer.
