Zoigl at the Foot of the Castle
The market town of Falkenberg in the northern Upper Palatinate, known for its distinctive Falkenberg Castle, is one of the five "capitals" of Zoigl brewing, alongside Windischeschenbach/Neuhaus, Eslarn, and Mitterteich. Located in the Tirschenreuth district, the town maintains a centuries-old brewing tradition that is part of everyday life here.
Communal Brewing and the Zoigl Star
Zoigl is brewed in the Kommunbrauhaus: a communal brewery where the communal brewers produce their wort using traditional methods, ferment it at home, and serve the finished beer in their own Zoigl tavern. The displayed six-pointed Zoigl star indicates which tavern is currently open. The brand "Echter Zoigl vom Kommunbrauer" stands for originality and quality.
Kramer Wolf and Hafnerkarl
Two Zoigl taverns are active in Falkenberg. Kramer Wolf regularly serves from Friday to Sunday from 11 am, opening approximately once a month throughout the year. Hafnerkarl has different opening hours on different days (Friday from 2 pm, Saturday and Sunday from 10 am, Monday from 5 pm). Both taverns follow a rotating calendar, which can be viewed on zoiglbier.de and the official Zoigl calendar.
Intangible Cultural Heritage
Upper Palatinate Zoigl culture has been recognised as intangible cultural heritage under the UNESCO Convention since 2018. Visiting a Zoigl tavern in Falkenberg combines hearty conviviality, delicious snacks, and the unique atmosphere of a historic market town with a castle – an authentic piece of the Upper Palatinate Forest.
Zoigl Falkenberg — edition 2026
The 2026 Zoigl season in Falkenberg extends throughout the entire year. The Kramer Wolf Zoigl tavern serves from Friday to Sunday from 11 am and opens approximately once a month, including January 3–6, March 13–16, and October 16–19, 2026. The Hafnerkarl tavern has different opening hours on different days (Friday from 2 pm, Saturday/Sunday from 10 am, Monday from 5 pm) and opens, among others, December 19–22, 2026. Both taverns follow a rotating calendar; each serving point is recognisable by the Zoigl star and resembles a small Volksfest with hearty snacks. The continuously updated calendar can be viewed on zoiglbier.de and the official Zoigl calendar.
