Mashing technology at top level

The craft brewery Sevenbräu relies on technology from the Krones Group for its latest greenfield brewery.

To be able to produce top-fermented beers in addition to lambic, Lindemans had Steinecker build a new greenfield brewery.

Their mission is to bring good beer to every street corner and to make it accessible. And with the newest addition to their brewery locations in London, their brewery in Enfield, Beavertown are one step closer to that goal. For their biggest project yet, they relied on the support of Krones.

Krones and Steinecker are progressing their successful, 30-year alliance with Heineken in Heineken Malaysia Berhad’s Sungei Way Brewery.

There is a real flagship quality about the family owned brewery Omer Vander Ghinste in Belgium. The sweetness of malt and the bitter aroma of hops permeate the air, stunning architecture skilfully marries tradition to discreet modernity, and the premises are imbued with an aura of nostalgia. And although the almost 130 years of its history are omnipresent wherever you go, the brewery is simply well equipped with state-of-the-art-technology, in the shape of stainless steel lines for beer production.

There hadn’t been a brewery of this size built in Russia in over a decade. And this one, for Tatspirtprom for an annual capacity of two million hectoliters, was completed in record time: the first brew was mashed in just one year after the contract was awarded. The project marked Krones’ first turnkey brewery in Russia and the company’s fastest turnaround to date on a project of this magnitude.

When a major international beer company closed its brewery in Kursk, Russia, around ten years ago, it created a sort of beer vacuum in the region. Then, in 2012, Oleg Nosov and his business partner Grigory Davidenko decided to open their own brewery: the Kursk Beer Company Ltd. They brought many years of experience in beer distribution to the table and knew the industry inside and out. They decided to buy empty premises in Kursk and start building their first brewing plant. And now, just five years later, they built a second brewery.

In a small village in Southern Belgium right in the heart of the Ardennes, a father and his two sons are keeping up the local beer-brewing tradition.

From zero to 3.2 million hectolitres, creating one of Cambodia’s strongest beer brands from scratch, and all of that in just seven years: this is what Khmer Beverages has managed to achieve.
