Bayerischer Bahnhof Leipzig
A guesthouse brewery in the oldest surviving terminus station in the world, opened in the restored 1842 building in Leipzig in 2000. Its purpose was to bring back the Leipziger Gose, a local specialty brewed in the city from 1738 until production stopped in 1966. Brewmaster Matthias Richter has run the copper brewhouse since 2003 and produces four standards alongside seasonal brews. All beers are served unfiltered, using Bamberg specialty malts and hops from the Elbe-Saale region; annual output is around 2,000 hectolitres, most of it poured on site.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
