IT’S FINALLY HERE… WORLD CUP KICK OFF WEEK IS UPON US!

After months of talking about it, counting down to it, planning for it, and probably annoying everyone around us with it…

THE WORLD CUP STARTS THURSDAY, JUNE 11TH!

And there is only one place to kick it all off…
Brauhaus Schmitz

SPECIAL HAPPY HOUR • 2PM–5PM
But pay attention because this is important…

🚨 THIS IS THE LAST HAPPY HOUR UNTIL AFTER THE WORLD CUP! 🚨

That’s right. Once the world’s biggest sporting event begins, all bets are off. For the next month it’s soccer, steins, bratwurst, cowbells, chanting, cheering, and enough international drama to keep us all entertained.

WORLD CUP THEMED QUIZZO • 6PM
Think you know your World Cup history? Your legendary goals? Your obscure national team mascots? Prove it.

Whether you’re Team USA, Germany, Colombia, England, Mexico, Argentina, or just Team Bier, join us Thursday as we officially kick off a month-long celebration of the beautiful game.

The road to the World Cup starts here. LET’S GO!

Starting TODAY, Brauhaus Schmitz is officially OPEN FOR LUNCH SEVEN DAYS A WEEK!

That’s right. No more waiting for 4:00pm. No more staring longingly at the clock. No more wondering where to get your schnitzel, bratwurst, giant pretzel, and perfectly poured German bier before dinner.

NEW HOURS:
Monday - Sunday 12:00 PM - 2:00 AM

Same great food. Same delicious bier.
Just MORE HOURS to enjoy it all.

Need a midday pretzel? We’ve got you.
Lunch meeting that somehow turns into a stein? We support that.
Looking for a place to start your day of soccer watching? You already know.

So come celebrate our expanded hours the best way possible: with a cold German bier in your hand and something delicious on your plate.

See you at NOON.

We are ONLY TWO WEEKS AWAY from the start of the greatest sport in the world… and Brauhaus is THE place to be.

From the opening whistle to the final chant, we’ll have every match, every goal, every heartbreak, and every celebration blasting through the bierhall all summer long. Massive watch parties, packed crowds, giant TVs, outdoor viewing, steins raised high, and enough energy to make it feel like you’re in a stadium itself.

This is it. LET’S GO!

Paris vs London.
PSG vs Arsenal.
The Champions League Final is HERE!

This Saturday, May 30th - Doors crack open at 11:30AM so you’ve got just enough time to claim your seat, grab a bier, and get set for a noon kickoff.

No brunch plans needed. This IS the plan.

See you Saturday for 90 minutes of panic, yelling, singing, celebrating… and probably at least one table screaming at a missed chance like their team can hear them through the TV. LETS GO!

More TVs ✅
3000 cowbells ✅
World Cup Glasses ✅
Bracket wall hung ✅

Hard to believe the world’s biggest game is only TWO WEEKS away… but WE ARE READY!

Every match.
Every goal.
Every last-minute heartbreak.
Every table screaming like it’s the 89th minute.

We’re turning South Street into the ultimate match-day destination with a few outdoor watch parties mixed in. The bier will be flowing, the schnitzel will be flying out of the kitchen, and the cowbells will be loud enough to echo down all of South Street.

So dust off your kits, warm up your singing voice, and prepare your liver accordingly… because the biggest game in the world is almost here.
(We are waiting on a few more scarves … before you come at us)

The countdown is ON until the WORLD’S BIGGEST GAME takes over America — and you KNOW Brauhaus Schmitz is ready to party.

Starting in just THREE WEEKS, the ‘Haus will be showing EVERY. SINGLE. MATCH. From the first kickoffs to the late-night celebrations, this is where football fans, beer lovers, and international party people unite.

Still looking for your home base to cheer on your team? Look no further. We’ve got the bier, the bratwurst, the giant screens, and the atmosphere you won’t find anywhere else.

And because we don’t do things halfway… we’re planning FIVE OUTDOOR WATCH PARTIES throughout the tournament.

We’re still putting the final touches on all the fun, BUT get ready… because ALL the juicy details drop NEXT WEEK. Trust us — you’re gonna want to stay tuned.

So tell us… who’s just as excited as we are?! 👇🏼 And more importantly… who’s watching the matches at their favorite German bar on South Street?

Straight from Germany and landing at Brauhaus Schmitz for the VERY FIRST TIME in the United States… introducing König Ludwig Hell.

That’s right — before anyone else in America gets a pour, WE’VE got it flowing. A smooth, crisp, easy-drinking Helles lager from the legendary König Ludwig Schlossbrauerei Kaltenberg.

Think golden, malty, dangerously crushable, and basically made for summer afternoons and even better - soccer matches!

Come be part of beer history and try the first pours in the U.S.

Prost, Philly. You’re drinking like royalty now.

History on the line in Istanbul!

For the FIRST time ever, Freiburg and Aston Villa meet in a European final — with Freiburg chasing their first continental trophy and Villa looking to lift European silverware again for the first time since 1982.

And with Europa League mastermind Unai Emery on the Villa sideline… expect drama.

This SUNDAY (May 10th)… do the right thing.
Bring. Your. Mother. Out.

Because she raised you, fed you, and somehow still puts up with you… the least you can do is bring her out for a Spritz (or two 😉).

We’ll sweeten the deal — Mom’s first drink is on the ‘Haus!

Call her. Text her. Make the reservation.
We’ll have the Spritz waiting.

This Saturday, May 2nd… it’s a perfect storm of Philly fun:

• MAIFEST on South Street (11AM–8PM)
• DOOP BUS heading to the match (leaves Brauhaus at 6pm)

Why choose one when you can do BOTH?!

Start your day at Maifest — cold liters, live oompah, dancing in the streets — then hop right on the DOOP Bus and roll into the match with the best fans in the city. It doesn’t get more Philly than this.

🚨 BUT HERE’S THE DEAL 🚨
We need a few more seats filled to keep this bus rolling… don’t be the reason it stays parked … Grab your tickets now on our website!

We’re not saying this board is a vitamin chart … but science might be …

A 2026 study out of the Technical University of Munich just gave us the kind of science we can REALLY get behind…

Turns out bier is packed with Vitamin B6 (you know, the good stuff for brain power, metabolism, and keeping you feeling like a champion). One 1/2 liter can deliver about 15–20% of your daily dose… with Bock bier being the overachiever of the bunch.

So what we’re hearing is… it’s not drinking, it’s vitamin intake…

Lucky for you, we’ve got 34 biers on tap ready to “support your health journey”

🍺 Doors open at NOON
🍺 Happy Hour kicks off at 4
🍺 Plenty of “vitamins” flowing all day long

Come grab a liter (or two… for balance) and do as the Germans do. PROST!

HAPPY GERMAN BIER DAY!

On this day in 1516, Bavaria dropped the ultimate mic with the Reinheitsgebot — the German Beer Purity Law — declaring that bier should be made with only water, barley, and hops (yeast came later once science caught up 😉). Over 500 years later… we’re still drinking to that.

So yeah… this isn’t just another night out — it’s a HISTORIC reason to raise a glass!

Join us tonight, grab a bier and drink your way through centuries of tradition.

Want to drink smarter while you drink harder? There are STILL a few spots left for our 500 Years of Bier Seminar (Tonight | 6:30pm-8pm)
Snag your tickets on our website!

Doors open at 4. Bier will be cold. History is being honored properly.
