Kreuzherreneck Brewery, Dusseldorf

Kreuzherreneck Brewery, Dusseldorf

Kreuzherreneck Brewery is a brewery that focuses almost as much on music as it does on drinks. The brewery is located near old town but is much more modern than some of its kin in the heart of Duesseldorf. Established in 1954, Kreuzherreneck Brewery has been known to host concerts ranging from jazz to punk.

The tiny pub doesn't have a lot of decoration but it still manages to have a great deal of style. Much of that comes from the cozy atmosphere that allows for lively conversation or enjoying loud music.

The brewery offers a surprisingly large array of beers for its size. It also offers wine and numerous spirits, including specials like the salmiakki. Native to nordic regions, salmiakki is a salty liquorice liquor that should be tried in small sips as it is a potent and acquired taste. A local favorite is the Gedeck, which is an Altbier with a shot of salmiakki.

Dusseldorf Introduction Walking Tour

The area at the confluence of the Rhine and Dussel rivers was on the outskirts of the Roman Empire and settled by Germanic fishing tribes.
