Sad news. Kitzmann, the oldest brewery in Erlangen, where I was stationed in the 1960s, is closing down.

When I was stationed there in the late 1960s, there were three long established brews, Kitzmann, Erichbrau and Henniger Reifbrau. The latter two were absorbed by Nuremberg's Tucher brewery. In the past couple of decades, two defunct breweries were reincarnated, Steinbach and Weller.
Kitzmann was my favorite, and their brewery had a delightful stube and biergarten.
Many Germans lament the trend for smaller breweries to be bought out by larger breweries, which they say results in what they term, "industrial beer". The beer scene just won;'t seem the same in Erlangen without Kitzmann.
