A cold glass is held up against amber streetlight in Düsseldorf’s old town, the foam catching neon and laughter as the guide maps the evening: five Hausbrauereien, five distinct Altbiere, two hours to taste the city’s most rooted brew. Participants move at a brisk walking pace between compact cellars and low-ceilinged bars where copper tanks and local regulars give context to every sip.
