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.

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.
