Known for Altbier Seasonal

Uerige Obergärige Hausbrauerei is a traditional brewpub located at Berger Straße 1 in Düsseldorf's historic Altstadt, founded in 1862 when landlord and brewmaster Wilhelm Cürten took over the premises. The nickname 'Uerig' — Düsseldorf dialect for 'bad-tempered' — was reportedly applied to Cürten by regulars, and it stuck as the brewery's name. The brewery has been operated by the Schnitzler family since 1976. Uerige Alt, brewed strictly according to the Purity Law of 1516, is noted for having the highest hop bitterness of any German Altbier and regularly ranks among Germany's top beers.
