Brauerei Greifenklau
Brauerei Greifenklau sits on Laurenziplatz on the Kaulberg, one of Bamberg's seven hills, and traces its brewing roots to 1719, when the cathedral canon Franz Friedrich von Greifenklau had an inn and brewhouse built there. Brewmaster Sigmund Brockard bought the run-down property in 1914 and had his beer brewed elsewhere until 1919. Today the fourth generation, brewer Sigmund Brockard and his sister Ulrike Göller, runs brewery, inn and beer garden above a three-storey rock cellar; the brewhouse was renewed in 2021.

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.
