About Zoigl Windischeschenbach

Windischeschenbach is considered the stronghold of Zoigl — a communally brewed, unfiltered beer served in private Zoiglstuben when the Zoiglstern (brewery sign) is displayed. Throughout the 2026 season (from mid-May to December), five Zoiglstuben — Schlosshof, Binner, Beim Gloser, Zum Roudn, and Fiedlschneider — will open their doors in rotation. The Zoigl culture in the Northern Upper Palatinate is part of the intangible cultural heritage and a unique piece of living tradition.

When the Zoiglstern is Displayed

Zoigl is more than just a beer: it's a living communal brewing tradition of the Northern Upper Palatinate. In the communal brewery, the Zoigl brewers brew their unfiltered, natural beer and serve it in rotation in their private Zoiglstuben. A displayed six-pointed Zoiglstern (beer sign) indicates which tavern is currently open. Windischeschenbach is considered the stronghold of this tradition.

Five Zoiglstuben Throughout the 2026 Season

In 2026, five Zoiglstuben will be active in Windischeschenbach: Schlosshof (daily from 10 AM), Binner (daily from 10 AM), Beim Gloser (evening service 5–10 PM, Fridays and Mondays from 2 PM), Zum Roudn (weekends), and Fiedlschneider (multi-day serving periods). The season runs from mid-May to late December; the taverns serve according to a rotating schedule, ensuring Zoigl can be tasted throughout the season.

Windischeschenbach — Zoigl Stronghold in the Upper Palatinate

Windischeschenbach is located in the district of Neustadt an der Waldnaab, in the state of Bavaria, in the Northern Upper Palatinate. The district of Neuhaus with its castle and the neighboring communal brewery shape the region — the Zoigl culture is recognized as intangible cultural heritage and makes Windischeschenbach famous far beyond the Upper Palatinate.
