Zum Rad presses its entire apfelwein production in-house in Seckbach, a village cider works on Frankfurt's edge running since 1806 and still family-run.
Tip: This is the closest Frankfurt gets to visiting a working village Kelterei; the courtyard pours what the press behind it made.

the station brews behind the counter of a converted Oeder Weg petrol station, Frankfurt's Nordend taproom with six guest lines beside its own.
Tip: The forecourt is the beer garden; Saturday from 15:00 is the long session, and the guest taps rotate German craft rarities.

naïv is Frankfurt's craft beer headquarters on Fahrgasse, pouring its Glaabsbräu collaboration lager beside rotating German and world taps from everywhere.
Tip: The bottle shop at Fahrgasse 8 sells the take-home versions; walk-ins only in the evening, with the pizzeria next door at number 6.

Frankfurt ferments apples where other cities brew barley: Zur Buchscheer has pressed its sharp house apfelwein on site every year since 1876.
Tip: Autumn brings Süßer and Rauscher, the young part-fermented pressings, straight from the yard; ask what stage the vat is at.
