HISTORY
During fermentation, young beer forms many small foam bubbles, in the brewer’s language called “Kräusen.” When the brewer adds small amounts of this beer to an already matured beer, the process is called “aufkräusen.” For Graser Kräusen, we add a small amount of young Franconian Pils to matured Felsenkellerbier, thereby complementing the full-bodied flavor of the aged beer with the liveliness and fruity hop notes of the young beer. A wonderfully fresh treat!
Where can I buy Graser beers?
All Graser beers are available fresh on tap at the Wirtshaus Graser in Bamberg’s mill district neighborhood. And they are available in bottles, too, both locally in Bamberg and at select specialty stores and international partners. You an also find it in our Online Shop.
OUT OF TRADITION
Our Promise
Our beers are just like Konrad Graser: full of character.
Graser beers are unlike any others. Each one has a unique craft feature that sets it apart from normal beers. This distinctive technique in the brewing process gives Graser beers their unmistakable flavor. That’s why each one tastes like no other. It’s all part of our tradition.
Original recipes based on Bamberg’s oldest brewing tradition
Before Konrad Graser took over Hellerbräu, he ran the former Michaelsberg Brewery for many years as owner and brewmaster. The brewing logs containing his recipes date back to that time. The Michaelsberg Brewery, with documented brewing rights dating back to 1122, is considered Bamberg’s oldest brewing tradition.
Graser beers are a family affair today, just as they were back then.
What would Konrad Graser say about the fact that his descendant, Matthias Trum, is breathing new life into his beers? He would surely be proud. Today, Matthias Trum—the sixth generation of his family—runs Hellerbräu, which his great-great-great-grandfather took over after his time at Michaelsberg.
