Brewer: Jörg Fischer and Johan Gass. | Not terrible at all... Opened a second brewery in Kirchgässli 8 2502 Biel in 2017 with the former equipment from Crans-Montana (http://brasserie-la-marmotte-bienne.ch). Probably brewing only small batches at the Biel location which does not refrain them to fully play on the drink local syndrom.
