Kempinski Hotel Beijing Lufthansa Center’s Paulaner Bräuhaus celebrated its 6-million-litre brew with a Riverside Garden celebration, joining over 70 Beijing artisan vendors, ranging from sellers of food and cultural crafts to popular lifestyle brands, to revel in the historic Paulaner Bräuhaus milestone. The opening, the night before, featured a ceremonial beer-tap, leading into two days of festivities, with live music, family-friendly entertainment, various workshops and an assortment of boutiques, attracting more than 3,500 attendees. During the ceremony, the hotel’s Deputy Managing Director, Mr Li Bo, and the Hotel Manager, Raimond Weultjes, started the weekend by expressing their appreciation to the guests for their continuous support for Paulaner Bräuhaus throughout the past 28 years and continuing to uphold their promise to provide a superb dining experience without sacrificing the authentic hearty German taste.

A Brewing industry legend for 28 years

In 1634, an authentic German brew upholding Purity Law standards was crafted by monks at Neudeck ob der Au monastery – a brew now known as Paulaner beer. Fast-forward to 1992, and the brew finds its first home in China in the heart of the capital city. Now the beloved amber draft also receives the spotlight during numerous celebrations, from Oktoberfest to Maifest, as it continues to symbolise a good time. Kempinski Hotel Beijing Lufthansa Center’s Paulaner Bräuhaus is continuing to extend the history of this iconic microbrewery by announcing the 6-million-litre brewery milestone and bringing artisans of all kinds to the steps of Beijing’s first German microbrewery.

According to the Brewer’s Daily register, the restaurant’s daily average beer sales throughout the year amounted to 700 litres, reaching 1,100 litres a day during the summer and autumn peak seasons.

Since Paulaner opened in Beijing, there have been detailed records every day counting the raw material measurements, minutes spent brewing and the brewing temperature to ensure a consistent product of this classic brew. On 20 October 2019, the record was set for the most beer produced during a single day throughout the Oktoberfest, with 1,630 litres,” said Zhang Wei, one of Paulaner’s expert brewers, who joined the team in 2001.

Paulaner has always imported the best quality hops, yeast and other raw materials from Bavaria, Germany, as it adheres to the traditional whole-malt brewing process and HACCP system standards to create first-class quality rich beer,” Zhang Wei said. “Three of the classic German beers – Paulaner’s dark beer, light beer and wheat beer brews – are known for being sensational, refined and unchanging. Paulaner beer requires a controlled fermentation temperature with no errors, such as a temperature difference of 0.2 degrees higher, which has not changed for 28 years… But, of course, the rules also bring innovation.”

Zhang Weizheng continued:If the climate is adjusted, the brewers will choose new hop varieties or use other yeast strains to create a new seasonal beer type. For example, Salvadoran high-strength beers, such as May Burke and Dunkel Wheat, are all well received seasonal classics that play off the variety of different wheats.”

70+ Family-Friendly Vendors at the Riverside Market

Kempinski Hotel Beijing’s unique location and well-built private garden provide guests with a tranquil oasis within the bustling city centre of Beijing.
