December 2021 – Barfuss Brauerei

Say hello to Brian and Karin – the duo from Barfuss Brauerei. 
They started out with a little home-brew kit in 2002 and then went on to bigger and better 60 liter system shortly after. After that, they upgraded to a 600 liter system and are creating some really interesting seasonal and special release beers. Stop by and say hello to them if you’re ever in Thurgau.
