My wife and I stopped by Brauerei Witzgall in the early afternoon on September 14th of 2017 on our way from Nürnberg to Bamberg. The front door was locked but we found a side passage to a yard, or hof, in back where there were a half dozen or so people leaning against the wall or standing around drinking beer. We obviously looked confused and someone asked us what we were looking for. "Bier", I replied. He told us we had to go inside, pointing to the steps to the doorway, and off we went. Inside there was a decent sized room with one or two people, and a small bar set up with an older woman tending. We grabbed some beers and headed outside as that seemed more comfortable. It turns out that the two guys we met were brewers who'd just opened up their own place, so we talked about beer and had a good time. There was only one beer available at the time, so we just had one, said goodbye, and headed on our way. I have no idea if they serve food or not, but I wouldn't be surprised. It was just such an interesting experience that I'd have to recommend it as you won't find that in too many other places. Also, the beer was pretty damned good! To note ~ I've given them a 3.5 for selection as it's quite common in Germany for a brewery to offer just one or two varieties.

I discovered this place in 2007 when several of us decided to get off the bus from Stiebarlimbach (and the wonderful bierkellers there) on the way to the Eggolsheim train station. I am sure glad we did. This is a wonderful brewery and pub in the charming little village of Schlammersdorf. The interior of the place is fairly typical of a Franconian brewery Gaststätte, and frankly we sat outside on the picnic tables. The landlords could not have been more pleasant to us foreign tourists.

They only had two beers, I think, and we began with the lagerbier (Vollbier) on-tap, and it was very good, but it was the Landbier in bottles that really shined! Wow, this beer was amazing, and I made sure that I took a few bottles back to the USA with me. I sampled a bit of the food, prepared by the lady of the house, and it was very good and low priced. I highly recommend this place (you can get a bus from Eggolsheim train station, or you can walk from the train station -- we walked back because the bus service is limited). This is now one of my favorite places in Franconia, and I went back in the summer of 2008 for a second visit.
