The History of Bitburger
In 1817 Johann Peter Wallenbronn set up a brewery in Bitburger to make top-fermented beer. In 1839 his widow, Anna Katharina, took over the business before her daughter, Elisabeth, married Ludwig Bertrand Simon in 1842 and Simon continued to run the company.
In 1871 their 24-year-old son Theobald Simon took over, investing in the expansion and modernisation of the brewery. He invested in an ice-cooled artificial cellar designed to keep temperatures at the same low level, all the year round, making it possible to brew new bottom-fermented beers. In 1883 Bitburger brewed its first Pils beer. The first Bitburger Export led to activities in nearby Luxembourg, where a representative office was set up in Echternach in 1886.
In 1909 Bitburg first started selling their "Original Simonbru German Pilsener". The common term used today, Pils or Pilsener, became established after Bitburger won a legal battle against breweries based in Pilsen. In the same year, the first deep well came into operation. The outstanding quality of this water is still central to the distinctive taste of Bitburger.
After the brewery was destroyed in World War Two, the three brothers, Theobald, Hanns and Bert Simon rebuild the brewery and start to brew its full bodied beer.
The Bitburger Cup, a glass chalice on a hectagonal stem, paves the way in the industry in 1964.
After continual expansion of its brewing capacity, by the early 1970s Bitburger had grown to become one of Germanys biggest selling consignment breweries and the largest brewery in the State of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The company is now in its seventh generation of the family run company and continues to uphold the famous Bitburger name.
