Known for a full range of styles

Brauerei Knoblach is a family brewery and inn in Schammelsdorf, a village in the Litzendorf municipality east of Bamberg at the foot of the Stammberg. The Knoblachs farmed there before opening a tavern around 1880, and brewing began at about the same time. Brewery and inn are still run by the Knoblach family, and the household also operates its own fruit distillery. The house style is well-hopped and dry, built around an unbunged Lagerbier and the amber Räuschla.
