Altstadt

Fredericksburg’s biggest brewery is about Old-World German Charm Deep in the Heart of Texas. The brewery opened in 2017 and features one-of-a-kind destination and home to authentic, award-winning German beer. The European-style structure features a tasting room, restaurant, authentic Biergarten, event banquet hall, multi-level patio and a private garden and cellar. To attain Old-World flavors, the owners of Altstadt Brewery imported Pre-World War II Kasper Schultz copper kettles from Germany. They adjust water minerality to beer type and abide by the German Purity Laws of 1516 when brewing the beer. In addition to offering a variety of beers, the brewery also sells homemade pretzels, schnitzel, steak and more. The breweries hours are Wednesday and Thursday, noon-8 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, noon-9 p.m. and Sunday, 11a.m.-4 p.m.
