Excursion to the production of the Swiss beer empire

• Excursion to the production of the Swiss beer Empire

Despite the fact that from the beer I drink only non-alcoholic, and then a few times a year, the mood in Europe, I have the mood was almost every day. After all, there are many types of beer and non-alcoholic as well.

For us, a visit to this place was a surprise. The program did not mention about it and when we landed on the territory of the old factory, we are very happy.

After a tall glass, I spotted an interesting container

It is hard to believe, but these buildings more than 110 years

As we explained to the guide, a sign of the Star of David is not that familiar, and it's just a logo of the brewery. But something I hardly believe in such coincidences

The layout of the brewery. In 1876, as an abandoned chemical plant, a local farmer and the brewer, who has learned to brew beer for the 9 years of residence in Germany, opened a brewery. Things went so well that after 6 years the plant summed up the railway line. And in 1898, the company becomes the largest brewery in Switzerland, and still keeps the leader brand. And the beer castle was built in 1902. "Feldschlösschen" by the way, and translated into Russian as "a small castle in the field". Active growth is not slowed and by 1930 Feldschlösschen bought another 27 breweries. And in 2000 the company entered the Carlsberg holding.

Hops. It smells good in my opinion

Barley. After processing of the remaining materials make pechenyushki that are perfect for beer

But the most important as well as in tea - it is water. The plant has its own well, as I understand it

A little tools for service ...

And here is brewed beer

It is hard to believe, but this is not a museum piece, and ancient mechanisms that are still running

On the wall are placed all beer brands that are available concern

Unfortunately, inside pass did not let

Behind the glass brew beer

It is surprising how all polished. Interestingly - at our brewery is the same purity?

conveyor. As we watched the work of art, we are told the story of the non-alcoholic beer and customers from the Emirates. Before the next shipment to the UAE in beer was discovered degrees, it had to cancel the delivery of a large consignment of non-alcoholic beer. Reputation is more valuable than money.

A few people who work in the factory

And when the factory is a museum of vintage cars, which transported the group beer

There are not so old artifacts

And there are old men

A lot of chrome on the heat sink does not happen

Cars used mainly Bern, Switzerland. The existence of this brand only found out at the factory

Fire machine. Beer or something put out a fire?

Compact Citroen

The horse, a horse

The scale is impressive

Bottle conveyor.

Each year, the plant produced posters. Even during the war

The times are changing, changing posters

The logical conclusion of this corridor with placards is a souvenir shop

And on weekends the beer factory in the nearby city carried about on horseback

After visiting all the points of the program, we were sent to a tasting. In addition to the beer very memorable chandelier in the hall next to us

Interesting signs on the toilets. Left for girls, right boys
