Hotel Gasthof zum Bräu in Enkering, part of Kinding, hosts celebrations, weddings, meetings and seminars, with three event rooms for 50, 65 and 90 guests and 17 bedrooms on site. It is a family-run inn in the Anlauter valley, inside the Altmühl Valley nature park, and the home of the Schöpfel brewing family.
Seminars and company events
The inn lists seminars and meetings alongside celebrations and offers advice on technical equipment for conferences. The official pages we read do not describe the meeting rooms or packages in detail, so ask the team which room fits your group and what equipment it brings. The three event rooms can be arranged freely in table layout and seating, which suits workshops and dinners alike. With the A9 motorway exit and a train stop nearby, the inn is easy to reach for a team coming from Nuremberg, Ingolstadt or Munich.
Weddings and receptions
The inn lists birthdays, weddings and anniversaries among its celebrations and plans them from one source: menu choice, decoration, and the option of an overnight stay. The Anlauterstube takes about 50 guests, with a variable table plan. The Bräugewölbe takes about 65 and is a barrel-vaulted room with a tiled stove, where table groups can be arranged. The former brewhouse takes about 90 and has a barrel vault almost 6 meters high, where the brewing kettles once stood. The beer garden under a large linden tree is offered for a reception or afternoon coffee when the weather allows.
Rooms and capacities
The three rooms seat 50, 65 and 90 guests. The 90-guest brewhouse is the largest setting, and the beer garden is an addition for receptions rather than a seated room. The inn does not give meeting layouts, so seminar seating should be confirmed on request.
Accommodation
The inn has 17 individual rooms, listed by name as Rumburg, Altmühl, Altmühl S, Anlauter, Schlößl A, Schlößl B and a single room, Wieseck. The hotel pages also offer short-stay arrangements for cycling and hiking in the Altmühl Valley, which a group can add to an event weekend.
Catering
The kitchen and the beer garden are in the same house, and the team advises on the menu for each celebration. Weekly opening hours apply to the restaurant, so the event dates need to be agreed directly.
History and setting
The house is a traditional Bavarian inn right on the Anlauter stream, in a landscape of woods and meadows that suits walking and cycling. Its former brewhouse is the most distinctive room.
Getting there
The address is Rumburgstraße 1a, 85125 Kinding. The inn is directly at exit 58 of the A9 motorway and near the Kinding-Altmühltal rail stop. The yard has car parking with an electric charging point of 11 to 22 kW, plus charging stations for e-bikes and a lockable bike barn at the beer garden.
