Brewers in the fifth generation

The private brewery in Frankenmarkt, Upper Austria, run by the fifth generation of the family, puts quality and customer service first and works according to the motto "small but nice": The raw materials of local farmers are processed by hand into the award-winning beer and bottled with the high-quality Frankenmarkter mineral water.

Bräu am Berg - Berggold

The Frankenmarkter beer specialties, brewed according to the Bavarian purity law of 1516, guarantee the beer lover the highest drinking pleasure. The raw materials of local farmers are lovingly handcrafted to create a harmonious specialty beer, the Bräu am Berg Berggold. Ecological sustainability and care are the main focus.

Inspiration through blacksmithing

The inspiration for the brand name was the grandfather of Mario Scheckenberger, the beer smith, who was once a blacksmith in Steinbach. The blacksmith's craft stands like no other for powerful and characterful qualities like the beer of the beer smithy today. In addition to the award-winning beers, the brewery tours, beery souvenirs as well as the brewing tavern including regional delicacies are popular.

The Werkstück – the beer to the nature park Attersee-Traunsee

A delightful selection of light Pilsner malt and selected caramel malts results in a rich amber color. The malt character is harmoniously balanced by the fine Celeja aroma hops. The most important raw material - water - comes directly from the source in the Attersee Traunsee Nature Park.

From hobby to profession

It was Volkher Kaltenböck who, in the course of his master brewing studies at the University of Munich, in Weihenstephan, dealt with the art of brewing for a long time. The first brewing experiments followed shortly afterwards at his parents' farm with a manageable quantity of 10 liters. Today he runs the brewery together with his brother Herwig.

Barley and hops from own cultivation

In the meantime, the beers of the Kaltenböck brewery have won several awards and since 2012, the brewery has even been growing its own barley and hops on its own fields. For the regional Bier4er, the decision was made to use the Pfahlbaubier. A very special beer which is also the harbinger for the 2027 national exhibition. It is a dark herbal beer with raw materials that were already known and cultivated in the Neolithic Age.

For almost 200 years hospitality in the heart of Gampern

In the inn - Zum Gugg - where weddings, baptisms and all other kinds of celebrations have been held for decades, beer has also been brewed since 2017. In the new brewhouse, with the integrated brew kettles, the Gugg beers are brewed in a very special ambience, with only regional ingredients.

Beer lovers can choose between Gugg (naturally cloudy Märzen), Gamperner Spezial(dark) or one or the other seasonal beer specialty.
