Carnival only comes once a year - and you can only enjoy Sticke beer at Uerige twice a year. It contains more malt and hops and has a higher alcohol content than ordinary Altbier. And our guests appreciate it! It used to be whispered hand over mouth that Uerige served Sticke again because Master Brewer had portioned the portions too generously. This could not happen with today's fully automatic operation. This is how Sticke beer is deliberately brewed - and that certainly does not compromise either its quality or its taste. The two dates every year are always the same. The third Tuesday in January and October are the two Sticke days.
