Since the brew pans used to be made of wood for boiling the wort, they were heated from the inside with hot stones. After the invention of the metal brew pans, this went out of fashion. According to this old brewing process, the wort is heated by adding hot stones. As a result, some of the malt sugar caramelizes and gives the beer a caramel note. These Steinbier is produced by the local Leikheim brewery and can be sampled in the inns.
