Over Two Centuries of Tradition

Nestled in the heart of the South Eifel mountain region since 1817, Bitburger has been synonymous with brewing excellence, drawing on over 200 years of tradition and commitment to quality. Our story begins in the lush landscapes of the Eifel, where the mastery of brewing is not just a profession but a calling. At Bitburger, every sip of our beer is a testament to our unique and unmistakable taste, a result of generations of brewers who have dedicated their lives to perfecting the craft.

Bitburger’s Promise of Quality

As a proud family-owned brewery, our promise is to deliver a beer that is both unmistakable in its taste and unmatched in its quality. Our journey through centuries has been guided by a simple truth: the finest beers are made from the finest ingredients. This is why we choose only first-class Bitburger seal hops, the purest deep-well water, and premium brewing barley. These carefully selected raw materials are the foundation of the Bitburger taste—a taste of incomparable pleasure with every sip.

The Green Gold: Bitburger Siegelhopfen

The hop is the soul of the beer, imparting a natural aroma and a characteristic slightly tart taste that beer enthusiasts cherish. Bitburger Premium Pils is graced with the famed Bitburger Siegelhopfen, sourced from the world-renowned hop-growing regions of Hallertau in Bavaria and Holsthum near Bitburg in the Südeifel National Park. This “green gold” is our guarantee of a beer with a distinct flavor and a heart true to its origins.

A Pilsner Like No Other

Germany’s favorite beer style, the Pilsner, is celebrated for its dry, bitter flavor and light color—qualities that define Bitburger Premium Pils. Our brewing tradition of this style dates back to 1909, long after the term “Pilsener” was first coined in Germany in 1883. Our straw-colored pilsner stands out with its crystal-clear appearance, perfectly balanced hops, and a lasting foam head, delivering pure pilsner enjoyment in every glass.

Innovations in Brewing

– 0.0% Drive: Experience full flavor without the alcohol. Our 0.0% Premium Pils Drive Alkoholfrei is brewed following the strict German Beer Purity laws, offering an unmatched taste for those who enjoy the drive as much as the destination.

– Radler naturtrüb: Born from innovation on a warm summer’s day in 1922, our Radler combines 40% Bitburger Premium Pils with 60% naturally cloudy lemonade for a refreshingly citrusy taste, perfect for quenching your thirst after a long ride.

– Unfiltered Premium Pils: Savor the essence of hops and malt in our naturally cloudy, unfiltered Premium Pils. It’s a taste of our brewing heritage, with all the goodness of our traditional ingredients.

Berliner Kindl

WE CONNECT TRADITION AND INNOVATION
We brew according to traditional recipes, with the best ingredients and strictly in accordance with the beer purity law. We complement the traditional art of brewing with the latest technology – this is how the unmistakable taste of Berliner Kindl beers is created. We use specially selected types of malt and hops for each of our beers. The malt gives the beer its body and color, while the hops provide the spice and aroma. The brewing water comes from our own deep wells and is filtered and treated. The yeast also comes from our in-house pure breeding facility. For each type of beer we use a specific yeast strain, which is crucial for the character of the beer.

RADEBERGER PILSNER: A UNIQUE HISTORY

Discover the beer that helped pioneer the Pilsner tradition in Germany, winning over leaders and drinkers alike across the globe, and still brewed exclusively in Radeberg.

Radeberger Founding Fathers

Meet the visionaries behind Radeberger’s inception: Gustav Philipp, Johann Gottfried Schöne, Adv. August Max Rumpelt, Dr. jur. H. E. Minckwitz, and Carl Hermann Rasche. Together, they revolutionized brewing in 1872 with courage and innovation.

Crafted for Excellence

From its humble beginnings, Radeberger aimed for perfection. Through relentless pursuit, the brewers honed their craft, conducting meticulous beer analyses and surpassing even Bohemian standards.

Defining a Tradition

Radeberger’s success challenged conventions, sparking legal battles over its name. Yet, in 1913, the Imperial Court affirmed its rightful place as a Pilsner, solidifying its legacy.

Celebrated Connections

Radeberger’s influence extends beyond brewing, with admirers including Saxon King Friedrich August III and Otto von Bismarck. Its support of institutions like the Semperoper underscores its commitment to excellence.

Global Reach

From New York to the world, Radeberger’s acclaim led to its renaming as the “Radeberger Export Beer Brewery” in 1885, marking a new chapter in its international journey.

Join us on a tour of our brewery and witness firsthand the tradition, passion, and innovation that define Radeberger Pilsner.

FLENS_BRAUEREI

FLENSBURGER BRAUEREI

From the Master Brewer’s Desk:

“No one is truly surprised that all our beers are brewed according to the German Purity Law. However, what many do not know is the innovative approach we take with our brewing process called ‘Merlin’. This method allows us to brew so gently that the vitamins and nutrients are largely retained in the beer.

We are perched right at the source. All our beers are brewed with crystal-clear brewing water from our Flensburg glacier spring, which lies 240 meters deep. This water is of 100% mineral quality and has been protected from environmental impacts for over 10,000 years. This is the essence of Flens.”
