Bavarian Brewery Museum

The importance of beer as a cultural asset is undisputed. Like no other beverage, beer conveys thousands of years of knowledge about agricultural raw materials, craft traditions, personal life stories and social habits of eating and drinking.

From exhibits that are thousands of years old to the living craft of brewing - the Bavarian Brewery Museum is a real treasure trove of beer culture which, in addition to its informative character, will definitely be remembered for its numerous seasonal specialty beers.

The exhibition begins with the art of craft brewing around 1900, which impressively demonstrates the physical effort required to produce the delicious barley juice at that time.

Take a look over the shoulders of the master brewer of the Open Brewery Museum into the transparent brewing kettles and find out everything you ever wanted to know about brewing.

From beer brewing in the time of the ancient Egyptians to the Romans and Celts, the “Beer culture through the ages” leads you to the beer brewing of the monks in the Middle Ages. Valuable exhibits such as old beer mugs, brewhouses and precious treasures await you!

In addition to beer bottles, crown caps, labels, beer felts and beer glasses, many rare tin signs can be seen in “Beer in advertising”. This includes the advertising sign for EKU export beer from the period between 1890 and 1910, which was actually once a dark beer (''Dunkles'').

Until the 1930s, beer was stored in dark cellars for fermentation. Due to differences in pressure and temperature, not every barrel produced the same beer. In order to bottle uniform beer despite this, brewers mixed the beers together using blending blocks.
