Beer Culture You Can Experience: The Brewery Tour at Hofbräuhaus Traunstein
Experience an authentic city tour through 400 years of brewing art: In the historic Hofbräuhaus Traunstein, you will discover the brewhouse, open fermentation cellar, horizontal lager cellar, and the new brewery museum – with stories that bring history to life, and a fine beer tasting with pretzel in the Maximilianstüberl.
Tradition Meets Technology: Tour of the Brewhouse
Even upon entering the brewhouse, the scent of malt and hops fills the air. Between copper kettles and shiny pipes, your guide explains why the best raw materials, craftsmanship, and time shape the aroma. Architectural details and brewing processes become tangible – a true discovery experience.
Open Fermentation Cellar and Lager Cellar: History You Can Feel
In the open fermentation cellar, you can observe the work of yeast up close. Then, you will go to the horizontal storage tanks – where Bavarian beer culture matures in peace. Insider knowledge about fermentation, temperatures, and aging times provides cultural enrichment and expert insights.
