Additional Information

The EKU brewery was established in November 1872 under the name of "Erste Kulmbacher Actien-Exportbier Brauerei." The Brewery is situated in Kulmbach, in Northern Bavaria Germany.
In 1996, the formerly independent breweries Reichelbräu, Sandlerbräu, Mönchshof and EKU were united under the umbrella of the new company Kulmbacher Brauerei AG, but EKU retained its unique, internationally renowned, Bavarian brewing tradition.

Over the years the brand identity is updated and re-launched with subtle changes, a change of Logo or a new font.
Sometimes this brand update is done by the new owners after a brewery has been sold, other times just to give the brand a fresh new look on the ever growing market.

Below are some notes to help identify some of these changes and an aid to reference the year of the glass.
