It goes without saying that all of our highly popular beers at the Bitburger Brewing Group adhere to the German Purity Law. Originally passed in 1516, this law stipulates that you can only use water, yeast, barley, hops and hop products. The selection of these raw materials alone requires the utmost diligence. The hops have to be inspected in the field, immediately after harvesting before taking samples back to our in-house laboratory for testing. Then and only then do we select the best hops and hand them on for further processing. Even the malt comes under close scrutiny in terms of its regional origin within Germany. Beers made by our company may only use two-row summer barley.

Bees Nees | November 3rd, 2008 |
A unique Australian made specialty beer. Brewed with a blend of premium pale malted barley and malted wheats with an equal amount of pure light amber honey.
