Family farm wineries were the backbone of the early
Missouri wine industry. In 1839, John Henry Puchta
brought his growing family and his wine making skills
from his native Bavaria to the lush Frene Valley near
Hermann. The family planted vineyards then built a home
and a traditional arched cellar with the fine native
stone. Until prohibition destroyed the industry, the
Puchta Winery was recognized for its quality wines. In
1988, Tim Puchta moved into the old family home to begin
replanting the vineyards and restoring the original
building. The sixth generation of Puchtas invite you to
explore their authentic Farm Winery nestled in the hills
along Frene Creek just two miles from Hermann, west on Highway 100. Tour the
native stone wine cellar and taste their medal winning
wines. View the original stone-wheeled grape crusher and
wine press on display, along with other antique
winemaking equipment. Then relax under the Pecan, Walnut
and Buckeye trees with your favorite wine and enjoy some
local cheese or sausage in the peaceful beauty their
family has treasured for six generations.

Tin Mill Brewery (now open)
Owners Don & Jeanne Gosen & Ellen Dierberg Schepman plan for a
large brewery complex in downtown Hermann housed in the former MFA
feed store on Guttenberg. This is where they will make
the majority of the brewery's German beers. These will include
a Light Pilsner, Full Bodied Lager, Dopplebock and Octoberfest beer.
All of the raw materials for theses beers will be imported from
Germany. "Our beers will all be made in the traditional German
brewing method using only lager yeast," said Gosen. "This
gives the beer a drier more crisp flavor." There will be a
beer garden in the back of the building and also across the street
from the brewery. The Tin Mill Brewery will be capable of producing
over 2000 barrels a year and will include a kegging and bottling
line. The next phase of the brewery project will include the
grain elevator on First St next to the red caboose. The grain
elevator will become a full service restaurant and brewpub. A
separate brew system will be installed in this facility and will
produce more of our seasonal and specialty beers," said Gosen.
He said one example of this is an oatmeal stout that is aged in
used Jack Daniels barrels for 6 months. The Tin Mill will
also make a beer with ingredients grown on the new living history
farm under construction at the former Kallmeyer farm. |
