Brauerei Schrüfer in Priesendorf

One day I stopped by at the Brauerei Schrüfer in Priesendorf. The brewer was in quite a hurry that noon - three locals at the stammtisch and his grumpy old father waiting for assistance to get out of his car (probably anxious to get a hoppy refreshment). Nevertheless the brewer found both time and interest in showing us his brewery and explain the basics. Clearly he was a proud man... Among things he explained that - like many other brewers in the region - he used Hallertau Traditionel. However he was not sure that he could afford using this type in the future. He told that the market price of euro-hops had raisen in correlation to the increased american demand, which again could be explained by last year's strong position of the dollar. Who would have guessed? The global dynamics of financial transactions may actually lead to a change in the contents of Priensendorf's vollbier
