The Cramer family began making brewing history in 1753, when the farmer Antonius Cramer first had to pay a beer tax of one Reichstaler and 19 Florins for his self-brewed beer. Today, more than 250 years after the brewery was founded, the tranquil town of Warstein in the heart of the Sauerland region is the home of a great beer that is drunk all over the world. The Cramer family has succeeded in turning a regional beer into a famous brew known throughout the world.
