Aare Bier Founded in 2006	Neuenburgstrasse 42 3282 Bargen 032 391 00 22	#239 "6,300" hl list of beers	11	12.98	"Brewers: Christian Schenkl and Ludwig Stranzky. Founded by a local businessman and opened on August 26th 2006 with a solid initial brewing capacity. The production went from 1600 hl during the first year, 4000 in 2011 and reaches about 6300 nowadays (about the capacity limits). Aare Bier has for many years been specialized in contract brewing (accounting up to 25% of their production): Goldküstenbräu and Oberlanderbräu (until 2012), Lozärnerbier (until 2018), Fischerstube Ueli Winterbogg (2009-2011), Falkenbräu Festbier (until Spring 2014) and Züri-Bräu Original (2014). Those times are over which left some places for their own beers. Brews also the Bier-Bienne beers. The company has 8 employees and offers 4 core beers and every leap year - well, in any case, rarely - some one-shot. Good quality but - by far - not enough diversity." This brewery believes in the myth of the Reinheitsgebot.

Back to Burgdorf since October 2016 with a brewing installation of 12 hl. Employs 3 people is should open their own bar by the end of 2020. Using its own wild yeasts, this brewery is inspired by the belgian farmhouse tradition and offers 6 core beers and many one-shots (some of them barrel-aged). Talented people, interesting, creative and very good beers. Clearly a top ten brewery in the country."

Should have a capacity of 1200 hl. Mostly running thanks to its Golden Ale and Helles but more interesting for other limited editions. Increased massively its production capacity to 12'000 hl in 2020 and has since since then a can bottling machine.

Egger Founded in 1863	Brauereiweg 3 3076 Worb 031 839 03 57	#14 "22,000" hl list of beers	19	10.6	"Brewer: David Santschi. Founded in 1863 by Gottfried Egger at his return from the USA (where he also just founded a brewery), this brewery is nowadays run by the 6th generation. With about 40 employees this enterprise took advantage of the closure of the Gurten brewery and reached a peak of production with 30'000 hl in 1997. Unfortunately a lack of reaction to the new beer trends as well as an outdated traditional corporate image lead Egger to continual decrease of the production output (nowadays probably light above 20'000 hl). Offers almost exclusively traditional german-styles beers (and, IMHO, of pretty low quality) and limited editions called ""small batch"". Would be part of my list if you asked me which breweries are in danger to close at short- or medium-term." This brewery believes in the myth of the Reinheitsgebot.

Felsenau Founded in 1881	Strandweg 34 3004 Bern 031 301 22 08	#16 "25,000" hl list of beers	13	10.85	"Brewer: Josef and Pascal Meier. Founded by Johann Gustav Hemmann in 1881, this family-owned enterprise is run nowadays by the 6th generation and has about 25 employees. After reaching a production high of 25'000 hl during the 60s and the 70s, it dropped drastically to 8'000 (~2005) before increasing again impressively to 25'000 again (2018). Since 2002 the logistic is handled by Heineken. Despite being conservative (don't look for craft beer styles here) this brewery bases its success upon taking advantage of the trend to drink local beers as well as upon a clever marketing."

A brewpub was originally planned but a suitable place could not be found. This microbrewery - which is a joint-stock company - produces two year-round beers (Helles and Weisses) and different seasonal specialities. It is enjoying a good growth having more than doubled its production between 2014 and 2015 and then again quadrupled it between 2016 and 2018. Expect some generally nice german-style beers but also the mandatory incursion in the IPA world (with some success). Brewers: Wolfram Seebauer and Peter Margowski.

Rugenbräu Founded in 1866	Wagnerenstrasse 40 3800 Matten-Interlaken 033 826 46 56	#19 "40,000" hl list of beers	11	10.6	"Brewer: Stefan Gross and Heiko Fahrenbruch. This more than 150 years old family-owned brewery started in 1866, founded by Christian Indermühle. His two sons were forced to sell it to the family Hofweber (at that time owner of Schloss Reichenbach in Zollikofen). In 1935 both breweries (the one in Interlaken and the one in Zollikofen) merged to create the “J.Hofweber & Cie AG und Gebr. Horn”. It's in 1968 that Rugenbräu AG was born and three years later that the plant in Zollikofen was closed. Rugenbräu has nowadays about 60 employees and has seen its production increasing after the closure of the Gurten brewery in the late nineties. It is no more the case recently, as the total lack of innovation from this brewery is leading it to stagnation (in the best years) or to losses. Expect uninspired and at best average german-style products. In fact this brewery does not give the impression to really care about their beers as it seems more concerned about its own whisky (on the market since 2008) or its soft drinks. The exact production output is undisclosed and the last estimation I have (40'000 hl) is from 2016."
