Bamberg
Brewing Tradition
—
Hellerbräu Bamberg is regarded as a specialist in the revival and preservation of historic beer styles.
With a passion for craftsmanship and tradition, Hellerbräu brews beers based on Konrad Graser’s records, whose recipes trace back to Bamberg’s oldest brewing tradition, the former Michaelsberg Brewery.
Like Konrad Graser himself, our beers are true characters. Based on Graser’s original recipes, each one has its own distinctive feature.
Every GRASER beer embodies a rediscovered, once-lost craft brewing technique, resulting in one-of-a-kind taste experiences—such as with the Graser Felsenkellerbier.
The Graser Pub: the official taproom for Graser beers.
Graser beers are served fresh on tap here in the former Brudermühle mill. Konrad Graser used to have the malt for his beers milled at the Brudermühle mill complex.
Original recipes based on Bamberg’s oldest brewing tradition, that of the former Michaelsberg Brewery.
The Benedictine monastery was built in 1008, and there is documented evidence that the monks have been brewing beer here since 1122. Just as Konrad Graser would later do for a quarter of a century as master brewer and owner of the Michaelsberg Brewery.
