Austria’s private brewery

It has been privately owned since the first recorded documental mention in 1492

The brewery’s success is inextricably linked with the name ‘Kiener’.

For more than 120 years the brewery has been owned by the Kiener family and since 1990 Dr Heinrich Dieter Kiener (III.) has been responsible for the company’s fortunes.

During this period of time, Stiegl has developed from a small local brewery into Austria’s largest and most successful private brewery. Independent businessman, Dr Heinrich Dieter Kiener assumed responsibility and has developed a sound local economic structure with 700 secure workplaces throughout Austria.

Stiegl’s top priority is the use of local raw materials and a respectful use of natural resources. However, in everything they do, making customers, suppliers and employees feel appreciated is of paramount importance.
