Time: 15:00 to 17:00


Drinking beer with an educational mission? We can do that! 
On the ProBierTour we serve you Erlangen's beer history (and stories) – from "Aha!" to "Cheers!".

What does Karl May have to do with Erlangen and Erlangen beer?
Did you know that there were once up to 18 breweries in Erlangen?
And that the "beer critics" used to be a kind of beer influencer... just without the internet?

On our tour you will discover how Erlangen became a beer metropolis, which crises the beer culture has survived and why it has recently experienced a renaissance. 
Of course, there's not only information, but also taste:
We taste beers from the current Erlangen breweries – Entlas, Krapp, Oberle, Steinbach and Weller – and treat ourselves to a real Bergkirchweih pretzel from the traditional bakery Gulden.
As a souvenir, you can take the tasting mug home with you. Perfect for the display case, the regulars' table... or the next private beer tasting.

In short:
Funny, informative, delicious – and absolutely worth trying. We look forward to seeing you!
