Frankenheim Alt

Frankenheim Alt is a traditional top-fermented dark beer originating from Düsseldorf, Germany. Founded by Heinrich Frankenheim in 1873, the brand became a staple of Rhinelander beer culture. The brewing honors the strict German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot), ensuring high-quality ingredients.

In 2005, the family-owned Privatbrauerei Frankenheim was acquired by the Warsteiner Group. Today, the beer is produced under the stewardship of the Warsteiner brewery, where it continues to serve as one of the major players in the 'Altbier' segment. The brand's ownership reflects a trend of consolidation within the German brewing industry under major national family-led corporations like Warsteiner.
