When people in and around Bamberg talk about the sun, they don't always mean the star that illuminates the earth with warm light. The sun is actually a brewery from Bischberg that supplies Bamberg and the surrounding area with the finest beer.
The Sonne brewery in Bischberg has been run by the Schuhmann family since 1856. The mash paddle is passed down from generation to generation and the other business areas are also managed within the family. After Dieter Schuhmann passed the business on to his two sons, Christian and Peter are now responsible for the brewery's success. Christian is the family brewer and is responsible for the Sonne's good beer. His brother, on the other hand, runs the kitchen and attracts guests from near and far with his homemade specialties. By joining forces, the Schuhmann brothers have made Bischberg a culinary destination for residents and tourists. The latter can stay overnight in the brewery's own guest rooms after they have enjoyed a royal Franconian meal in the cozy guest room and sampled the fine beer. In summer, the shady beer cellar invites you to linger and pampers cyclists, hikers and everyone else with hearty snacks, warm specialties and the odd cold beer. At the Schuhmanns you simply feel at home, not least because of the delicious beer and the food prepared with heart and passion.
The brewery with the sun in its name and logo was extensively modernized and expanded in 2000. The renovation was necessary after demand for the good Sonne beer increased steadily and new capacities were required. The brewery is the pride and joy of the Schuhmann family — you can see this for yourself on a short tour by senior boss Dieter Schuhmann. The brewery is brewed according to tried and tested recipes and with the highest craftsmanship, and has been for more than 150 years. Robust beers such as the Urtyp and the extremely popular Zunft Trunk have given the Bischberg brewery an excellent reputation that has long since crossed the borders of Upper Franconia. Down-to-earth, Franconian beers are on the rise, thanks to the artisan breweries and their delicious beers.
