Unterhammer

Unterhammer is a small brewery and heritage monument in Trippstadt housed in a historic building within the Palatinate Forest. It produces India Pale Ale, Pilsner, and Weissbier using traditional brewing methods.

The building dates to the industrial era and preserves its original architectural features from that time. It represents the long brewing tradition and craft methods that developed across the Rhineland-Palatinate region.

The name comes from the water hammers that once used the river's power in this location. Today the brewery serves as a gathering place where visitors taste local beers and experience the region's craft brewing traditions.

Visits are possible most days but require advance reservations for certain times. The location sits among walking trails and mountain bike routes, making it convenient to combine with outdoor activities in the area.

This location marks the start of the Palatine Way of St. James, a pilgrimage route that draws walkers from across Europe. The on-site mountain bike park adds another dimension, making it a base for both hiking and cycling adventures.
