“Wood fire, iron pan, cooling vessel and ice float – this is how the best beers are made!” says Georg Höhn, a passionate master brewer. And anyone who watches him at work quickly understands what he means.
In Memmelsdorf, in the heart of Upper Franconia, Höhn brews his Görchla beer using methods that amaze even experienced master brewers from all over the world. A cooling vessel? An ice float? For many, this is living brewing history – for Georg Höhn, it's everyday life.
His brewery resembles a window into past centuries. And that's precisely why beer lovers from near and far flock to the brewery inn to experience this unique taste.
“I could have poured this beer for Napoleon.”
