European Breweries History: Wurzburger
Wurzburger Hofbrau is a Pure Bavarian Beer that has been
brewed since 1643. The first official Wurzburger brewery was established
by Prince-bishop Johann Phillip von Schonborn in 1643, and was called
Wurzburger Hofbrau A.G.
In 1863 the brewery was passed from the Bavarian Crown to a
private brewer, Matthaus Max. In 1867, Wurzburger Hofbrau was being
served on draft at "Luchow’s" in New York city.
Interrupted by Prohibition and the two World Wars, Wurzburger
returned to the U.S.A. in 1950.
