Löwenbräu

1383 · brewery founded

Löwenbräu claims to date from around 1383. Its lion emblem comes from a 17th-century fresco of Daniel in the lions' den. By 1900 it was Germany's largest brewery. In 1923 its Bürgerbräukeller beer hall was where Hitler's failed Beer Hall Putsch began. It became part of the Spaten-Löwenbräu group in 1997 and is now owned by AB InBev.
