Maisel's Bier-Erlebnis-Welt
A beer museum in a converted old brewery, once recognized by Guinness as the beer museum with the most complete collection in the world. A craft beer bar sits next door.
The Maisel Brothers brewery is Bayreuth's most famous wheat beer brewery. Its 19th-century buildings retain their steam engines, brewing kettles, a cooperage workshop, and thousands of beer glasses and coasters. In 1988, Guinness World Records named it the “most comprehensive beer museum.” Visits are mainly guided tours and end with a complimentary glass of wheat beer. The next-door Liebesbier restaurant serves dozens of craft draft beers. Check the official website for tour times and prices.
