For more than three years, Nuremberg's pleasure landscape has been enriched by an attraction: Orca Brau opened its doors in 2017 and has since enriched the German beer landscape with craft-brewed beer specialties.
From writing about beer to brewing beer
The head, heart and hand behind the "Orca Brau" company is Felix vom Endt. The young, wild brewer had a rather unusual start in the illustrious world of beer. Like all his fellow brewers, Felix has always enjoyed drinking beer. Unlike the others, however, he not only drank it, but also wrote about it. Felix founded one of the first beer blogs in Germany and tested himself with wit and thirst through the offer in German beer shelves. At some point, his professional interest in drinking led him to start his first attempts at the kettle. At home at the stove, the future brewer's first creations were born. However, before his career at the mash paddle was to really take off, Felix first went out into the world. Together with his wife Susa, he flew to Canada and made his first experiences with craft beer. The spark was ignited and Felix burned for his new craft. Via detours, he found his way into the hallowed halls of the Heidenpeters brewery. There he learned everything there is to know about the craft of brewing and the management of a brewery, and also inherited the old brewing system. With a plan in mind and bag and baggage, Felix and his family moved to Franconia. Franconia is not only the secret beer center of the world, but also the home of Felix's wife Suse. The adventure could begin!
Beer knowledge you can taste
As a pioneer of the craft beer movement in Germany, Felix is an old hand in the business. And even though his own brewery only saw the light of day in 2017, it has already spawned a myriad of fantastic beers to date. The small brewery has set itself the goal of crafting the finest craft beers and works as best it can with regional, hand-picked ingredients. Felix combines tradition and modernity in a creative and innovative way, bringing a breath of fresh air to Franconian beer culture. In addition to down-to-earth classics like the Kellerpils, Orca Brau has unusual exotics like a Quince IPA or a Rhubarb Sour on its shelves. The young brewery offers a subtly assembled blend of great craft beers with character and flavor. You can also taste the Franconian Gemütlichkeit that Felix finds so appealing.
By the way, the vom Endt family chose the name Orca Brau out of pure fascination for the elegant animals. With a bit of luck, the gentle giants can be observed directly from the coast in Canada and have delighted Felix and Suse with their wondrous nature. Orcas are familiar animals and a symbol that will always remind the two of Canada. The perfect name, then, for their own brewery!
