Protokoll Brewery

🌍 Germany · Regional · Known for Black IPA · Märzen
Known for Black IPA · Märzen

Protokoll Brewery grew out of the Protokoll Taproom in Berlin-Friedrichshain, a bar with 24 taps that opened in July 2017. Early house batches were small and months apart; since 2022 the beers have appeared under the brewery's own name. It describes itself as a contract brewing project and names no brewing site. There is no core range: releases are limited and run mostly on draft at the bar and a few venues close to it. The focus is on hop-forward ales, from hazy New England-style pale ales and IPAs to clear West Coast IPAs, with black and red IPAs and an occasional oatmeal stout alongside.
