Keynote Speaker
In 2025 we we’re thrilled to welcome Matthias Trum, 6th-generation brewmaster and guardian of the legendary Schlenkerla brewery. From the heart of Bamberg’s old town, Matthias continues his family’s centuries-old tradition of brewing Rauchbier (smokebeer) in one of the only two breweries in the world that still use traditional smoked malts.
In 2026, you can expect an insightful and passionate keynote from a different but equally inspirational brewer, who will share stories of heritage brewing and their experience in the industry.
Exquisite Food and Beverage
Featuring a menu designed by the venue’s award-winning chefs, this exclusive dining experience brings together the finest local produce and world-class culinary technique—all carefully paired with a legendary global beer. . This is where exceptional food meets iconic beer in one extraordinary night.
