We produce pressure and non-pressure stainless steel tanks for the brewing, food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Our main production activities are the design and manufacture of technological units of the brewery. We produce stainless steel beer tanks, CIP stations, bright beer tanks, breweries and beer production technologies.

The history of beer production goes back thousands of years and is one of the oldest known forms of fermented beverages.

 Ancient civilizations Mesopotamia (approx. 4,000 – 3,500 BC)

• The first evidence of beer production comes from the Sumerian civilization.
• The Sumerians had a goddess of beer named Ninkasi - there is even a hymn to Ninkasi, which is one of the oldest surviving recipes for beer production.
• Beer was made from bread that was soaked in water and fermented.

Egypt

• Egyptians brewed beer as a regular part of their daily diet.
• It was consumed by all levels of society, including the workers who built the pyramids.
• Beer was sacrificed to the gods and used as currency.

China (approx. 5,000 years ago)

• Archaeological finds show that even in ancient China, fermented beverages were made from grain, rice and fruit.

Classical and medieval period
Romans and Greeks

• They preferred wine, but beer was known especially in the provinces and among the barbarians.

Middle Ages (5th - 15th centuries)

• Important role of monasteries: monks perfected the cooking process and started using hops for preservation and flavoring (first use around 9th century).
• Hop beer only became dominant in Europe in the 13th-14th centuries.

The modern age and the industrial revolution
16th – 18th centuries

• Guilds of brewers were formed, which determined the rules of production.
• The German Reinheitsgebot (Act on the Purity of Beer) from 1516 stipulated that beer may contain only water, barley and hops (yeast was not yet known at that time).

19th century

• The discovery of yeast (Louis Pasteur) and the understanding of fermentation enabled better quality control.
• Introduction of lager beer (bottom fermentation) thanks to cooling and storage.
• Industrial revolution = mechanization and mass production of beer.

Modern era (20th-21st century)

• After World War II, large breweries and commercial brands dominated.
• From the 1980s: a boom in craft beer, especially in the USA, later also in Europe and Slovakia/Czech Republic.
• There are thousands of styles and variations of beer around the world today.

If you want, I can give you a detailed timeline, the development of different styles of beer, or even the history of specific breweries - for example Czech or Czech.
