The Wagner city of Bayreuth has a lot to offer. In addition to the Market Count's Opera House, which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Wahnfried House with museum, the shady Hofgarten with its babbling fountains and canals, the New Palace and the Hermitage with its magnificently landscaped grounds, you can also walk through the picturesque old town. After the tour through the city, the numerous cafés, restaurants, ice cream parlors and bars invite you to relax and unwind. One of the most popular Bayreuth specialties is the good beer, which goes perfectly with Franconian cuisine. A handful of breweries are still located in downtown Bayreuth, including the Schinner brewery.
The family brewery has been an integral part of the city's culture since 1860 and was originally a cooperative brewery. After sixty years of brewing, the cooperative was dissolved and the brewing business was continued by Johann Weigand. The Schinner family has run the company since 1951 and runs a restaurant and the Schinner Braustuben. A few moves and times of need later, the Schinners are still at the helm of the company and supply the thirsty people of Bayreuth with their good beer. However, the family no longer brews itself: their brews are made according to traditional recipes by a friendly brewery and served in the Schinners' restaurants. The Schinner Braustuben is particularly cozy and inviting, with its rustic ambience and homemade specialties. In order to make meat consumption as sustainable as possible, the restaurant works with five local hunters. These deliver game from the local forests. The animals fed on the fruits of the forest and were free throughout their lives. Their meat is a delicacy that is processed with reverence and care at Schinner. The chefs not only use the popular pieces, but also turn offal and other cuts into fine dishes.
The Schinner brewery serves a range of Franconian beers to match the region's traditional dishes. The brewing pieces are handcrafted and owe their excellent taste to the skill of the brewers and their skillful hand in choosing the raw materials. Most hop varieties grow in the Hersbruck hop gardens and the malt comes from local farmers. These noble ingredients are brewed into wonderful beer, which is then allowed to mature in peace. Traditional beers like Markator are allowed to mature for a particularly long time and develop their deep, complex taste and unique character during this extra time.
