A beer indulgence in Lichtenfels brewery

"Nothelfer" (emergency helper) beer is made by Trunk brewery in the Lichtenfels district. It is brewed under the gaze of the "Basilica of the Fourteen Holy Helpers" and was named after the 14 saints who, in turn, gave this impressive pilgrimage church its name. The beer is especially refreshing and enjoyable – accompanied by views over the Main valley – when returning from a short stroll from either Lichtenfels or Bad Staffelstein station (each takes around an hour).
