Braugold was, is and remains the beery component of the Thuringian culinary culture. The Braugold beer specialties have found their friends in many restaurants, beverage stores and food retailers in Thuringia. Braugold is currently brewed by hand in a regional Saxon brewery. Due to its traditional ties to the region, the Braugold brand will continue to have a committed presence in the future.
For our beers we do not use imported but only high-quality hops from the largest hop growing area in Germany.
Our brewing water comes from seven of the brewery´s own wells. Over many millennia, this Erzgebirge water enriches itself with the naturally present minerals and trace elements.
According to the old brewing recipe, we rely on regional malt, which is reflected in the taste by its good quality.
