Although Stadtsteinach has fewer than 4,000 inhabitants, there is a lot going on there. The town is located in the Kulmbach district and has been declared a state-approved health resort due to its idyllic surroundings and clean air. The first documented mention was in 1151, and since then Stadtsteinach has become a popular destination for visitors and holidaymakers. The municipality's attractions include a local history museum, a historic town center, a church, baroque buildings, mills and a preserved part of the medieval town wall. You can also hike to the Nordeck castle ruins, see the magnificent Steinach Gorge or go to the outdoor pool. Stadtsteinach is particularly lively and cheerful during carnival time: Numerous events take place in and around the town. The local brewery plays a major role, especially at this time of year, but also at any other time of year. Schübel Bräu has been supplying the region with the finest beer for more than 150 years.
As one of the last private breweries in the Kulmbach area, the brewery bears a great responsibility. Its shoulders are the task of continuing the traditional craftsmanship of its ancestors - a duty that Jürgen Münch and his family fulfill with dedication, enthusiasm and passion every day. Jürgen and his wife Andrea took over the brewery from their family and are already training their own successors: their son Mario has learned the craft of brewing and malting and is already lending a hand everywhere, and their daughter Lea-Sofie is already in the starting blocks. They are the sixth generation of Münchs to be behind the kettle. For some time now, however, the family has not only been brewing for the people of Stadtsteinach and the surrounding area: when their cellar beer called A Fränkisch was awarded a bronze medal at the European Beer Star in 2012, the brewery gained international attention. Today, their fine beer is also enjoyed outside of Franconia.
The Schübel brewery's range consists of down-to-earth classics that are made with attention to detail and recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. All creations have names that refer to Stadtsteinach and the brewery's Franconian homeland. The Nordeck trunk , for example, refers to the castle ruins outside the town. The Schübel family is an important part of life in Stadtsteinach and can be found at every festival. Their beer creates a good atmosphere at church festivals, carnival parades, Christmas markets, sporting events, Easter markets and all kinds of other events.
