Master: Fred Gray
Re-established in 2005. Started by Peter Fauerbach, a German immigrant, the Fauerbachs brewed beer on the shores of Lake Monona. The brewery, started in 1848 when Wisconsin became a state, operated until 1966. The Brewery survived prohibition by producing non-alcoholic “near beer” and soda. The Brewery buildings are gone, but the name and demand have survived. Started again by great-great grandsons of Peter, the second phase of the legend lives on with the 5th generation.

Fauerbach Amber Lager –
2005 Vienna-style lager with a soft malt-i-ness and rich aroma. Not at all as bitter as it’s dark amber color suggests. It is an excellent beer to match and marry flavors of a wide variety of foods. It is perfect for sweet-spiced recipes or relatively sweet tasting meats. Pizza, grilled chicken, and brats come to mind.

Fauerbach Export - 2006 A German “Export” style lager designed from old family beer records from the 1890s. Fauerbach Export was first brewed with extra malt and hops for that long journey by rail. Export will compete in the broader German /American pilsner group but technically is a Dortmunder/Export style lager. |
