Craft from Bayreuth
summary
Family-owned Bavarian brewery in its fourth generation traces roots to 1887 and survives a 1990s sales collapse by shrinking from 300 to 160 staff, abandoning mass pilsners and doubling down on speciality wheat beers plus a new alcohol-free wheat beer that opens a sport/regeneration market. Growth happens for a decade with no advertising by retraining distributors, launching craft Pale Ales, and building a brewery museum listed in Guinness where visitors taste and brew; flagship lines hit capacity and one brand reaches #3 in its segment nationwide.
