Known for a full range of styles

Brewpub on Aegidientorplatz in central Hannover, facing the New Town Hall. Christine Nardien and Ralph Klemke took over the restaurant and its in-house brewery in June 2012; the site had previously traded as the HBX Stadtbrauerei. The copper brewhouse stands in the middle of the dining room, and a glass panel in the floor looks down into the fermenting and lagering cellar. Brewmaster Klemens Schell brews a Helles and a Dunkel year-round, the low-alcohol Undicht since winter 2024/25 and changing seasonal beers. Beer is sold only in the house, on tap or in one- and two-litre jugs.

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.
