About the Brewery

 

Oldest Family Brewery in the World

For nearly a thousand years, Wildbräu Brewery has been crafting beer the way it was meant to be—pure, natural, and deeply rooted in tradition. Founded in 1060, Wildbräu proudly holds the title of the world’s oldest family brewery, with an unbroken lineage tracing back to its founding. 

Farm-to-Bottle

At Wildbräu, authenticity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a way of life. Every grain used in their brews is sourced locally, ensuring a true farm-to-bottle experience. These are the same fertile lands that have supplied the brewery for a millennium, preserving the flavors and traditions that define Bavarian brewing.

 

Ancient Craft Methods

Their love of tradition means Wildbräu embraces slow, meticulous brewing techniques passed down for many generations. All beers undergo a lengthy lagering, allowing deep flavors to develop naturally. The brews contain 100% natural carbonation, entirely derived from the primary fermentation process. Neither are Wildbräu beers ever pasteurized, so that the beer preserves its fresh and complex character.

Highly awarded

Wildbräu Brewery has received some of the highest awards in Germany. Wildbräu brews earned gold medals from the World Beer Awards, as well as platinum, gold and silver medals from the prestigious Meineingers International Beer Awards.
