Gaffel- Origin of the name
The year was 1396 and the Middle ages were just beginning. Michael Angela, Gutenberg, bossiness was growing but so were threats to the way brewers made their beer. A group of master brewers got together to form a guild to govern their practices, both scientific and business. This beer guild was called, Gaffel.
When, years later, Cologne formed a constitution, the 22 original Gaffs had their say. The city came to reflect the values of the Gaffel- integrity, tolerance, and honesty.
