Yes, Wedding has a brewery! The beer is great and changes with season. The place can be difficult to find and is rather old school in it's design. But as said, great beer - and you'll get some Flammkuchen as a snack here, too.

Wedding was the former French sector, and therefore, there is a french cultural center here. With a wonderful art cinema that shows few, but well selected art films. Very much worth a visit. Look out for OmU - Original mit Untertiteln - if you want to watch a film without German voice-over.
