history

The brewery was founded by the Lorenz brothers as early as 1367 and sold in 1374 to the monastery of the Carmelite Order, which has been based in Straubing since 1368, as a monastery brewery and is now one of the oldest companies in Germany. In 1769 the Carmelites were banned from serving beer under pressure from private breweries. In 1848 the monastery was able to buy back the brewery and the malt mill from the state. In 1879 the monastery sold the brewery to Karl Sturm for 120.00 Reichsmarks. The brewery has been family-owned ever since. From 2013, extensive investments in energy saving were tackled. In 2017 it was awarded the Handelsblatt Energie Award as an energy self-sufficient brewery.
