Zoigl as in the old days: Winkler Zoiglstube invites you to the monthly taproom
On the first Saturday of each month, the Winkler Zoiglstube opens its doors at Oberen Nabburger Straße 9: unprocessed, amber-colored Zoigl straight from the wooden barrel, along with hearty Upper Palatinate snacks from family businesses in Amberg and the surrounding district. An authentic shopping experience for connoisseurs of regional diversity and traditional craftsmanship.
Tradition from the Communal Brewery
Since 1617, brewing has taken place in Amberg. The Winkler family brewery carries on the legacy of the communal brewery: When the beer is ready, the Zoigl star indicates the taproom opening. Johannes and Maximilian Winkler continue this tradition and serve the Amberger Zoigl, crafted and unfiltered – a piece of Upper Palatine market atmosphere in a tavern format.
Regional Snacks and Direct Marketing Quality
With a half Zoigl, hearty snacks using ingredients from the region are served: smoked meats, Obatzter, cured goods, fresh farmer's bread. Seasonal products determine the menu – honest, down-to-earth, and close to the producers.
Opening Hours and Procedure
The Saturday starts at 15:30 and runs until the night. Traditionally, no reservations are made – people gather together, engage in conversation, and enjoy. Those who arrive early find it easier to get seats.
Getting There, Parking, Public Transport
The Zoiglstube is located in the old town. Parking garages such as Marienstraße, Altstadt, or Theater garage are within walking distance. In Amberg, mobile parking is possible. The VGN city bus lines regularly connect the old town with the station and city districts. Accessibility note: historical old town with partly uneven cobblestones – plan for a few minutes of walking.
Quality, Certification, Responsibility
The Winkler family brewery stands for regional craftsmanship, short distances, and excellent taste. The Zoiglstube makes this brewing tradition tangible – transparent, traceable, with clear provenance of the ingredients.
Conclusion
If you want to taste Upper Palatinate, you are in the right place: Zoigl from the wooden barrel, honest snacks, and an atmosphere that connects. Experience Amberg brewing culture live – uncomplicated, regional, and enjoyable.
