Sippel, Baunach is closed

I stopped in at Sippel in late September 2010. The beer wasn't the defective mess I've seen/heard described. Also, they were using 'generic' beer mats instead of the old ones with the brewery's logo and name. It makes sense that the beer was something competently brewed down the road, by Keesmann in Bamberg. Another brewer bites the dust. I didn't realize that Gottsmannsgrüner had also packed it in, but again, it wasn't surprising; they were just the sort of small-to-mid-size production brewery that's having trouble surviving these days. The flip side has the new-breed small brewers that have started up in the last few years. Some, like Nikl-Bräu in Pretzfeld, Elch-Bräu in Thuisbrunn, and Schanzenbräu in Nürnberg have produced credible beers. Others ... we're still waiting.
