The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1040 on Weihenstephan Hill in Freising, Germany, Weihenstephan is officially recognized as the oldest continuously operating brewery in the world. Originally a Benedictine monastery brewery, it is now operated as a state-owned Bavarian company, maintaining the highest standards of the German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot).

How it is made

Deep in the heart of Bavaria, the Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan stands as a living testament to brewing history. This iconic brewery expertly balances state-of-the-art science with traditional brewing techniques to craft world-class lagers and wheat beers.
