A centuries-old Bavarian brewery has ceased its beer production. The Schlössle Brewery in Neu-Ulm will no longer brew its own beer after 334 years of operation.
The Schlössle Brewery in Neu-Ulm, Bavaria, has announced the end of its beer production after 334 years. The brewery owners shared this news on their website. According to their records, beer has been brewed on these premises since 1690.
Co-owner Christa Zoller-Kaltenbacher told the public broadcaster SWR that the decision was economically necessary. She explained that continuing beer production would require substantial investments, which are not justifiable given the current sales volume.
A local institution
The Schlössle is considered an institution in the region and is known for its traditional beer brewing methods. The SWR reported that the Zoller family expressed melancholy about the decision.
Despite the end of beer production, there is some good news for patrons. The restaurant and beer garden associated with the brewery will remain open. This ensures that while the brewing tradition may have ended, the social aspect of the Schlössle will continue to serve the community.
