Gambrinus is a name with deep roots in brewing history, derived from the legendary King Gambrinus, a mythical figure widely regarded as the patron saint of beer and brewing. The Gambrinus Company as it exists today is a family-owned business headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, with a mission centered on championing independent craft brewing across the United States. The company was established to sell and market beers brewed at partner breweries, giving regional craft breweries a broader national platform. The Gambrinus Company is best known for representing Shiner Beers, brewed at the historic Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, Texas — one of the oldest independent craft breweries in the country. In addition to Shiner's diverse lineup of lagers, ales, and seasonal specialties, Gambrinus also markets beers from the Trumer Brewery in Berkeley, California, known for its crisp and meticulously brewed Trumer Pils. This dual-brewery portfolio reflects Gambrinus's focus on quality craft beers with distinct regional character. Through its partnerships, Gambrinus has helped bring beloved Texas craft beers to drinkers nationwide. The Spoetzl Brewery's flagship Shiner Bock has become an iconic American craft lager, and the company has recently expanded its portfolio with Texas Special, entering the classic American lager segment with a Texan identity.
