Breslau Wheat Beer Brewery (Engelhardt)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Breslauer Weizenbier-Brauerei was a brewery in Berlin , which was founded in 1880 and primarily brewed top-fermented wheat beers of the Breslau style . It ended when the company changed in 1903 and the production site was given up in 1905.

history

The brewery was built on the property at Chausseestrasse 33 as early as 1860 as a wheat beer brewery ; In 1880 it was taken over by August Werm and expanded into the Breslau wheat beer brewery A. Werm . From 1885, Werm and his family also ran the breweries at Brunnenstrasse 141/143 and Zionskirchstrasse 38/39.

In 1885 the businessman Ernst Engelhardt and the master brewer Rudolph Frömchen took over the Breslau wheat beer brewery and turned it into the Ernst Engelhardt & Rudolph Frömchen Breslau wheat beer brewery . In 1886 Rudolph Frömchen left the company, so that it now became the Breslau wheat beer brewery Ernst Engelhardt . In the 1890s, Frömchen founded the Rudolph Frömchen Berlin wheat beer brewery , Wiesenstrasse 43 in Gesundbrunnen .

In 1895 Engelhardt sold the company to Martin Wasserzug, who renamed it Breslauer Weizenbier-Brauerei Engelhardt Nachf. (M. Wasserzug) . At the turn of the century, the brewery had an annual production of around 10,000 hl.

Due to illness, Wasserzug was unable to develop the business effectively, which is why he handed it over to his relative Ignatz Nacher from Gleiwitz in 1902 , who had already taken over the management as authorized signatory . From 1903 the company was called Engelhardt Brewery Nachf. OHG (Ignatz Nacher) . As early as 1902, Nacher decided to expand the brewery's range to include bottom-fermented beers and, above all, to improve the shelf life of the top-fermented malt beer . To expand the range, he found Otto Mayer as a partner , who also took a stake in the Nacher & Co. mountain brewery, which arose from the former Josty brewery (Bergstrasse 22).

In 1905 Nacher and Mayer converted the company into a stock corporation ; it was now called Engelhardt-Brauerei AG . In the same year the brewery was relocated to the former Berlin export beer brewery (Kaiser-Friedrich-Strasse 21-29, today Thulestrasse 48-64) 52 ° 33 ′ 17.6 ″  N , 13 ° 25 ′ 31 ″  E in Pankow .

The brewing operation on Chausseestrasse was continued by brewer J. Burkart until 1912. Around 1900 Ernst Engelhardt was listed in the Berlin address books as the owner of the property at Chausseestrasse 33. In the early 21st century, this parcel is part of the Otis Höfe .
