As a family brewery Schwarzbräu with its owner “Leopold Schwarz” is known as Germany’s most awarded brewery. Since the first medal in 1954, the Bavarians won nearly 700 medals and honors for their beers. Even more special than these extraordinary number of medals is the fact that Schwarzbräu runs its own malthouse. Only 3 breweries in Southern Bavaria make their own malt.
With this key-ingredient in own hands, Schwarzbräu is able to make special and mild beers with an outstanding uniqueness. All the beers of Schwarzbräu are made strictly according to the Bavarian Purity Law of 1516 – without using PVPP-filtration or pasteurization. The brewery put high value in combining traditional recipes with modern technics. Several employees work in the brewery for more than 25 years and higher.
The newest product is a classic Bavarian Helles, known as “Marie Hausbrendel Hell“. It is a typical Bavarian Lager as it is served in the pubs in Bavaria. It’s classically brewed – without pasteurization. Matured at 0°C for a time of eight weeks. The light golden color is pure joy and shines bright in the traditional Bavarian Willi-Becher. The brewer’s daughter “Marie Hausbrendel” was born in Augsburg in the Golden Twenties and was a famous host in the Schwarzbräu Bräustüberl later on. She was the Grandmother of today’s owner of Schwarzbräu Leopold Schwarz. So this beer is a tribute to his grandma.
This 2019, Schwarzbräu GmbH has joined Singapore Newspaper Taste Awards 2019 and won three Gold Medal and two Silver Medal in this competition.

Interview of Mr. Peter Spanrunft
Head of Sales & Marketing
Question 1: Do you already export to Singapore ? If yes, where ? If no, what type of importers & distributors are you looking for in Singapore ?
Answer : By now, we don’t have any importer for Singapore. We are looking for an importer who is willing to push forward a small Bavarian brewery which is known as “the most awarded brewery of Germany”.
Question 2: What is the most unique and qualitative part of your products, different from competitors ?
Answer : What makes us special? We run our own Malthouse. Only around 10 breweries in Germany have this outstanding knowledge of making their own malt. Our beers have this special aroma which you could describe like the guitar of Angus Young, AC/DC, which is remarkable and a well-known difference. Our beers have a mild aroma, we only use aroma hops from the famous German hops-refions Hallertau, Tettnang and Spalt. Which is also a strong advantage is, that we give our beers the time they need to become mild and digestible.
Question 3: When did you start to export your brand worldwide, and what is your development plan for the next years ?
Answer : We started to export worldwide in 2019. We had several small tries made in Vietnam and Brasil before. For around 10 years we have two importers in Italy.
Thank you Mr. Peter Spanrunft for your time and answers!
