Producer Background
Brauhaus Leikeim was founded in 1887 in Altenkunstadt, Bavaria, and remains a proud family-run operation five generations later. The brewery has built a strong reputation by staying rooted in the German Reinheitsgebot (Purity Law), using only water, barley, hops, and yeast to craft clean, balanced beers. What sets Leikeim apart is its dedication to slow fermentation, natural carbonation, and using locally sourced ingredients to maintain authenticity and flavour integrity.
Today, Leikeim brews a diverse range that includes Pilsners, Kellerbiers, Helles lagers, wheat beers, and seasonal bocks — all brewed at their modern facility while still drawing on time-honoured techniques. The brewery has earned accolades for its consistency and craftsmanship, both in Germany and internationally. Their distinctive swing-top bottles and commitment to independent production have made them a standout among imported beers on TheCru.ie. As part of our growing range of German Beer, Leikeim offers Irish customers a reliable, high-quality taste of Bavarian brewing tradition — ideal for those seeking something beyond the mainstream in their craft beer Dublin experience.
