The Brewery: The Pilgrim brewery was founded in 2013 by Martin Wartmann. The beers are made from the best monastery water, select malt, aromatic hops, forest herbs and spices.
Origin: The Fischingen monastery was founded in 1138 by the Bishop of Constance, Ulrich II, as a pilgrimage station. Fischingen has been the only monastery in Thurgau to be inhabited by monks. Centuries ago, a beer after a long day's march was a welcome, strengthening and popular thirst quencher. The brewery is continuing this tradition in the monastery brewery: pilgrims on the Way of St. James receive a free can of PILGRIM KLOSTER AMBER in the PILGRIM brewery.
Food: Pairs very well with fish, white meat, vegetables, salads.
