Radeberger ranks in the top 10 among Germany's best selling breweries. Their world famous pilsner was at one time brewed exclusively for the King of Saxony. In 1946, the socialist East German government took control of the brewery. In 1954, the company began to export worldwide. In 1990, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Binding Brauerei purchased the company and returned its sales to the world. After the purchase, the brewery underwent comprehensive renovations to bring their brewery up to speed with modern brewing. Today it is considered one of the finest breweries in all of Germany. ------------------------------ |
