Warsteiner are 9th Generation family owned, and currently under the stewardship of Catharina Cramer. The brewery's roots can be traced back to Antonius Cramer being requested to pay tax on his beer for the first time, his homebrewing passion project having exceeded the maximum volume allowed.

Flash forward a few centuries and his descendants have built a globally renowned brewing dynasty based on their exceptional Pilsner, after each generation intensively invested in the next, instilling quality as the primary goal of everything they do.

Based in the Arnsberg forest, the brewery draws its water from the 'Kaiserquelle', this perfectly soft water is at the heart of Warsteiner's excellence.

After significant growth through the 20th century, the brand is a key player in the worldwide beer market, and we're delighted to be part of developing it into the 10th generation and onwards.
