LaBieratorium

The wild story of LaBieratorium is one that speaks of great passion for beer and a lot of courage. Anja Braun and Olaf Wirths went through ups and downs with their project and in the end rose again like the phoenix from the ashes. What a blessing, because we would have missed the fine beer from LaBieratorium terribly!

Turbulent journey

After Olaf and Anja met in the dusty halls of an insurance company, things went uphill. The two of them founded one company after another with a lot of passion and good humor and ultimately ended up brewing beer because of their shared passion for good barley juice. With a lot of idealism and even more enthusiasm, the two started their brewing project LaBieratorium with its own brewery, craft beer bar and numerous other beer offerings. Cottbus should have its own beer again. That, and of course brewing excellent craft beer, was Olaf and Anja's plan, which they initially fulfilled with flying colors. Their beer was met with great enthusiasm in the craft beer scene and earned one award after another. Unfortunately, the people of Cottbus, for whom the beer was primarily intended, were not quite as enthusiastic. The rocket launch was followed by a rough landing and the closure of the bar and brewery. But anyone who knows Olaf knows that a setback doesn't necessarily make him give up. After a short time he pulled himself together again and entered into a momentous cooperation: together with the Bierothek®, Olaf founded the Kollabieratorium company and brought LaBieratorium out of obscurity.

Restart

According to the motto “Back to the roots”, they go back to the beginning of their beer adventure and start their new project as a traveling brewer. Brewing his beer in very different facilities at friendly breweries gives Olaf great freedom, which reminds him of his time as a traveling journeyman. What hasn't changed, however, are LaBieratorium's great beers. Your favorites LaBieratorium Hell , Black Pump and the F60 Paranoid IPA defy all odds and are now freshly brewed for you again. A few of the old classics are still available, our favorites are the Old World Ale , the Winter Dream and the East Breeze . LaBieratorium proves that craft beer is much more than just a drink: for the two trained beer sommeliers Olaf and Anja, it is a way of life.
