About us

The doctor says: Sometimes hops are just the best medicine.

Christof, Franz and Stine – a beer ignoramus and two beer lovers – are running Dr. Hops. Inspired by the wide variety of craft beer the three are bringing carefully selected beers to Leipzig. They and their team are always eager to share their passion for a good beers and drinks with others. If you are in town don’t hesitate and stop by for a chat on beer, music, and spirits to make your Leipzig visit memorable.

Craft Beer in the South of Leipzig

On six days a week, Dr. Hops serves a changing selection of regional and international handcrafted beer from 8 taps. In addition, the portfolio always includes around 100 bottled beers and a selection of cider and non-alcoholic drinks. Besides regular beer tastings and online beer tastings as well as Beer & Food events, Dr. Hops frequently offers entertainment in the terms of live music, readings and theatre evenings. On Sundays “Bier ab Vier” is on the schedule: on this occasion Dr. Hops opens at 04:00 pm in order to serve beer accompanied by handmade cake from Mintastique.

The Team

The team of beer enthusiasts leaves no stone unturned to enrich and inspire Leipzig with beer diversity. For them, craft beer is not only defined by the pure joy of experimenting or by the fact that as many ingredients as possible from new hops, orange peel to the fruit of paradise come to bear. To them, craft beer means in the truest sense of the word craftsmanship with respect for the product. Whether Lager, Pilsner, IPA or Stout – they always prescribe individually!
