The Oldest Breweries in the World
<< Return to Blog

There is something to be said for people who make the beer that injects joy into our daily lives. There is even more to be said for those that have withstood the test of time, producing quality (welcome Budweiser piss-water comments here)brews for centuries. I can't help but think that some of the same fermented beverages that got me through college were also the potential catalyst for my great-great grandfather and grandmother to accidentally produce offspring.

You missed a ton of breweries in Europe that are much older than the eighteenth century ones listed. Fail.

What did you base this on because you sure are missing tons of european breweries. Some of them are pretty large too: Heineken, Stellas artois, etc.

UM....Coors was started in 1873. How dare you leave that one out.

While I appreciate the snubbing of "Buttwater" in the article, you included it in the info graphic. While that can be forgivable for continuity's sake, the omission of Guinness franchise is an abomination. St. James's Gate Brewery, Dublin, Ireland 1759, although admittedly they did not start marketing a "Guinness Stout" until the 1840's.

1838 Westvleteren: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westvleteren_Brewery 1040 Weihenstaphen (oldest in the world): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weihenstephan_Abbey#Brewery There many more too, these are just the first that come to mind

"Å vyturys" was founded in KlaipÄ—da, Lithuania in 1784 by J.W. Reincke. www.svyturys.lt/en/main/info/about/history

Polish warka was founded in 1478 and believe there were older ones that don't exist now (this one still does!).

migalla May 3, 2009 at 5:45am

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirin_Brewery_Company 1869.... Where is the Asian beer? There are thousands of American military members that have had their delight with Korean OB, Japanese Kirin/Sapporo/Asahi, or sometimes even some Chinese Tsingtao. Seriously, you guys included frikkin PERU (and Australia, which isnt that old) as a beer brewer, a Latin American country, but ignoring Asian breweries despite that they were set up by a NORWEGIAN and GERMAN guy and are considered today as one of the worlds common beers?

While this is all very intersting I would like to add that the brewery in my hometown pre-dates everything on the map but Weihenstephan. http://www.bolten-brauerei.de/index.php

The Lord Nelson Hotel is the oldest continuously operated brewery in Sydney, Australia; it is a very cool place to stay in the old Rocks area by the harbor. Here is a link to its history: http://www.lordnelsonbrewery.com/lnbh_joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=31
