Kulmbacher Edelherb

Kulmbacher Edelherb is a premium Pilsner-style beer hailing from Kulmbach, a town in Upper Franconia, Bavaria, which is renowned as one of the oldest beer-brewing regions in the world. The 'Edelherb' variety is distinguished by its fine hoppy bitterness and light, crisp profile, adhering to the traditional German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot).

The brand is manufactured exclusively in Kulmbach, Germany, at the Kulmbacher Brauerei facilities. Historically, the brewery was formed through the merger of several traditional local breweries. Today, it operates as a significant regional player while being part of a larger corporate framework. The ultimate ownership lies with the Kulmbacher Brauerei AG, which is itself majority-owned by the Brau Holding International (BHI), a joint venture between the German Schörghuber Corporate Group and Heineken.
