history

In 1421 the Kesselsdorfer Erbschänke received brewing and serving rights. In 1611 the Leutereitz family ran the inheritance court . In 1627 the Saxon Elector Johann Georg I settled a dispute about excessive beer prices . According to the innkeeper, the beer output of the Kesselsdorfer Erbschänke at that time was around 45 hectoliters . The small brewery also had its own malt house .

In 1880 it was taken over by HW Müller, from 1892 Hermann Weber continued to run it and renamed it the Hermann Weber Brewery . After Hermann's death in 1910, his widow Maria Anna Weber took over the brewery and renamed it the Kesselsdorf Brewery in order to give it a distinctive name. At the beginning of the First World War , Martin Weber took over the brewery in 1914. In 1955 the brewery was closed for financial reasons. In 1966 the brewery and lemonade production were completely closed.

The Kesselsdorf brewery advertised on its beer mats that it was founded in 1717, although the Erbschänke already had the brewing rights in 1421 and the court files in 1627 also indicated a brewery.
