As part of the Franconian beer culture, the Hummel brewery from Merkendorf can rely on a centuries-old brewing tradition. The family-owned brewery produces a hearty selection of year-round and seasonal beer specialties and has been doing so for more than 450 years.

Beer - The pride of the Franconians

The Franconians are indeed very proud of their beer: some of the regions with the highest density of breweries in the world are on Franconian soil and there is hardly a village that does not have its own brewery. The festival calendar is full of beer highlights throughout the year and there is a suitable beer for every occasion. The delicious barley juice is a cultural asset that is lived and loved. Traditional breweries such as the Hummel brewery from Merkendorf have been cultivating Franconian beer culture for centuries and have made a delicious contribution to the Franconians' enthusiasm for beer. The brewery in the idyllic Merkendorf has existed since the 16th century and has been family-owned for more than 175 years. Generation after generation, the Hummels pass on the craft of brewing and continue the legacy of their ancestors with pride and passion. The brewery's own beer cellar and the rustic restaurant are entirely in the spirit of Franconian cosiness. Cool beer, homemade warm specialties and hearty snacks invite you to linger in the romantic, wood-panelled parlor. In summer you can sit outside in the shade of the sprawling branches of the magnificent chestnut tree and refresh yourself with the delicacies of the Hummel brewery.

Traditional with passion

The beer from Merkendorf is brewed according to the strict specifications of the Bavarian Purity Law and therefore consists only of hand-picked, natural ingredients. The hops come from the Hallertau, the barley is grown by regional farmers on Franconian soil and malted in the neighboring cathedral city of Bamberg. The fresh, crystal-clear brewing water is drawn from the in-house deep well and gives the beer the finishing touch. With heart and craft, the brewers produce year-round classics such as the down-to-earth Pilsner or the indispensable cellar beer and seasonal specialties. The latter includes, for example, the Leonhardi-Bock, which is served every year just in time for Saint Leonhard's feast day on November 6th. The range is a flavor-intensive representation of the Franconian art of brewing and tastes of home, the serenity of the Franconians and the beery joy of life.
