PAULANER

“The finest Munich art of brewing since 1634 –
Paulaner is Munich tradition”

February 24th, 1634 is a special date for the Paulaner brewery. On this date, the Munich commercial brewers filed a complaint with the mayor in order to ban the Paulaner monks of the Neudeck monastery in the Au district from selling their home-brewed beer. They were unsuccessful. This first official reference is to this day still considered the founding date of the Paulaner brewery and has been a vital part of Munich’s culture, tradition and history ever since.

The popularity of Paulaner beer has always extended beyond the city limits of Munich. The special enjoyment of beer, our highly skilled brewmaster and the famous Bavarian way of life, are just a few factors contributing to Paulaner’s success –locally and internationally.

HACKER-PSCHORR

“Since the 15^th century, the name “Hacker” stands for pure beer enjoyment, historic originality and all the things that makes Bavaria worth loving and living in. Or in short: Bavarian Heaven”

Hacker-Pschorr is one of the big traditional Munich breweries. Located at the corner of Sendlinger and Hackenstrasse in Munich, the first Hacker brewery was mentioned in 1417.

In 1793, the 23-years-old brewery servant Joseph Pschorr marries Maria Theresia Hacker, daughter of the brew master Peter Paul Hacker and acquires his father-in-law’s house and brewery. Over the next 15 years, Joseph Pschorr transformed the small Hacker Brewery into the top brewery among some 50 operating in Munich, through hard work and with a talent for business.

Today the site of the former brewery is still a popular meeting place for all friends of Hacker-Pschorr and is home to the “Altes Hackerhaus” restaurant.
