Brauerei Göller, more commonly known as Göller, is one of the oldest craft breweries in the world.[1] Located in the village of Zeil am Main in Franconia, Germany, Göller is a multi-generational family enterprise tracing its roots to 1514 when a local sanctuary or "Freyung" secured a brewing license.[2] Three brothers, Fritz, Max & Felix Göller run the brewery. Current brewmaster, Felix Göller, was named German Brewer of the year in 2013. His father, Franz-Josef Göller, won the same award in 1976.[3] Göller has won multiple gold medals in Meininger's International Craft Beer Awards, especially for its Rauchbier and its Dunkel.[4] The Euro Beer Star was also awarded several times.[5] Göller recently entered the international market and currently exports to the USA through Ancient Craft Imports, based in Kansas.[6]
