Mustache and sunglasses - these are the trademarks of the American Fat Head's Brewery. What began as a crazy idea by two beer fans ended up being a major project of international proportions. Fat Head's Brewery now sells its beer all over the world and the Bierothek® is thrilled to have its tasty creations such as the Hopferla , which was created in cooperation with Weiherer Bier , on the (virtual) shelf.

From the pub to the kettle

The success story of Fat Head's Brewery began in 1992 with a beer bar. To support the emerging craft beer movement in the USA, Glenn and Michelle served innovative, hand-crafted beers and were met with great enthusiasm. The business grew and after a few years the company had to double in size. The success of the beer bars ultimately gave rise to the idea of serving their own beer in addition to the various craft beers. Together with his friend Matt, Glenn began brewing his very own beer and serving it in the bars. An idea that took off and helped the friends not only have their own beer, but also their own brewery. In order to meet the constantly increasing demand, the brewery had to be enlarged and expanded several times.

Winning beer

The beer with the mustache in the logo is a real hit: The Americans with a passion for good beer have already won more than 30 awards for their creations. Fat Head's Brewery has often excelled in the World Beer Cup, an international competition between the best brewers in the world. Our favorite is an IPA that, like the Hopferla , was created in cooperation with the popular and well-known Franconian brewery Weiherer . The spicy Imperial IPA is a symbiosis of American innovation and German brewing art that completely convinced us.
