Egger is an Austrian brewery with roots stretching back to 1675, when the "Gwercher" brewery was founded in Kufstein, Tyrol. In the 19th century, the brewery passed into the ownership of the Egger family, giving the brand its name. Today, the company operates as Egger Getränke GmbH & Co OG and is considered one of Austria's well-known private breweries, alongside names such as Stiegl and Ottakringer. Egger's portfolio covers a range of beer styles that are characteristic of Austrian brewing tradition, with pilsner among its core offerings. The brewery has invested in modernising its brand identity, resulting in a full portfolio relaunch that earned Egger the prestigious German Brand Award in 2020. This recognition underlines the brewery's commitment to combining brewing craftsmanship with contemporary brand thinking. With centuries of heritage behind it and a modern approach to its beer range, Egger represents the blend of tradition and innovation that defines the Austrian brewing landscape. The German Brand Award win in 2020 reflects the creativity and passion the brewery brings to both its recipes and its brand presentation.
