NBG

What are two Americans doing in Nuremberg? Brew beer! Mark Zunkel and Luke Kennedy first had to travel the long way from America to Germany before their paths crossed. The two came to Germany for very different reasons and found each other in Nuremberg over their shared love of beer. A fateful encounter that gave rise to the microbrewery New Beer Generation, or NBG for short.

Experience values

It is obvious to Mark and Luke why they chose Nuremberg of all places. They love German beer! The two of them certainly didn't choose an easy place to live in Nuremberg, but that doesn't matter to them. Even in the corner with the highest concentration of breweries, the two Americans stand out with their beers. With a lot of sensitivity, they give the sometimes dusty classics of the German beer landscape that certain American flair - especially by using many times more hops than the German brewers do. Hops are not just Luke's specialty, who works for a hops dealer, Mark is also familiar with the hop scene as a native American and a friend of American beer.

Mr. Kennedy

In order to save costs and be able to implement their own beer plan straight away, Mark and Luke are gypsy brewers. The two brew their fine beer not far from Nuremberg in the Bamberg area and even though there was initially a lot of surprise at the huge amounts of hops that the two Americans threw into the vats, the boys quickly became friends with their hosts. The advantage of traveling brewing is not just for the Gypsies, the breweries that make their facilities available also benefit because they do not have any vacancies. The great beer that the New Beer Generation brews using the itinerant process is now sold far beyond the borders of Nuremberg. Their craft beer specialties such as the classic India Pale Ale , the fancy Crazy Lazy Hazy or the hoppy Valley of the Hop can also be tasted in the boys' taproom. With Mr. Kennedy, Mark and Luke have realized their second dream besides their own brewery. You can drink your own and a variety of other craft beers in a cozy living room atmosphere. If you're lucky, your beer will even be served by the brewer himself.
