Brauerei Keesmann
Family brewery in Bamberg's Wunderburg district, opposite the Maria Hilf church. It dates to 1867, when the butcher Georg Keesmann qualified as a master brewer at the age of 51 and added a brewhouse to his butcher's shop and inn. The family still runs it in the fifth generation. The brewery inn, a sandstone building from the early nineteenth century, is a listed monument. Unusually for Franconia, a Pils accounts for most of the output, alongside a Helles, an amber lager, a wheat beer and three seasonal strong beers.

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.
Bamberger Herren Pils
