Union-Brauerei is a brewery and protected heritage building in Bremen's Walle district that combines traditional production spaces with contemporary visitor facilities. The complex includes original brewing equipment alongside modern tasting areas and a beer garden.
The brewery opened in 1907 and grew into one of northern Germany's major brewing operations. It remains a key part of the industrial heritage of Walle, a district that once housed several brewing facilities.
The place reflects Bremen's long brewing tradition and shows how beer became part of local daily life. Visitors can observe the craft techniques that have been practiced in this brewhouse for more than a century.
The beer garden and tasting area are easy to reach on foot, and the site offers plenty of space to sit and relax. Weekdays tend to be less crowded, making it a better time to observe the brewing operations and ask questions.
The brewery partners with a nearby restaurant called DeichStube to produce a special beer using uncommon hop varieties. This collaboration shows how local businesses in Bremen work together to create distinctive products.
