The success story of the company, which has been run by the Veltins family for five generations has its foundations in a passion for artisanal brewing, innovation, investment, entrepreneurial vision and a corporate culture that is characterised by team spirit and the highest quality standards.
As such, right up until the present day, the premium beer is exclusively brewed from the highest quality ingredients – malt, hops, yeast and purest spring water – strictly according to the German Purity Law of 1516.
The water that rises from the springs in the conservation area around Grevenstein is exceptionally soft.

Alcohol - 4.8% ABV
Even before enjoying fresh VELTINS Pilsener, the quality-conscious consumer will notice the bright, shiny golden luster of the premium product. The aroma promises a refreshing and tasteful experience, reminiscent of fresh hay, while at the same time, it is possible to discern a slight hint of herbs.
A light citrus flavor and a slightly nutty note make you want to test the taste. In the first couple of sips, you pick up on the tangy character and the soft, elegant body of the light-colored beer.
The bitterness is perceived as very pleasant and it harmonizes perfectly with the tangy refreshment. The beer is harmonious in its aftertaste and is characterized by a slight dryness.
BREWING WATER FROM THE BREWERY'S OWN SPRINGS
A tastefully balanced beer in the Pilsener brewing tradition is only achieved using particularly soft brewing water.
That's why we brew fresh Veltins with soft spring water from our seven in-house springs, which have always flowed from the Homert Natural Park in Hochsauerland.
Analyses confirm that this water, due to its particularly low level of hardness, is ideal for our very specific brewing process.
HIGH QUALITY BARLEY MALT
In keeping with the tradition of the German Purity Law of 1516, our brewers are extremely appreciative of our barley malt.
For fresh VELTINS, we only use high-quality double spaced malting barley from traditional growing areas. The quality of the barley is determined in the malthouse.
Under the constant control of our experts, we permanently ensure that only the best barley malt reaches our brewing kettles.
HARVEST-FRESH HOPS
The hops are the "soul of the beer". That's why we brew our fresh VELTINS with a high-quality German aroma and bitter hops grown by our own contract cultivation. This gives our Pilsener beer its very specific aroma and its typical fine-dry taste.
As one of the few German breweries to do so, we always use fresh hops that have been processed according to the old brewing tradition and we consciously refrain from using hop extract.
In the agricultural hop growing area of Hallertau, a dedicated member of our staff oversees compliance with indispensable quality standards.
A SPECIAL BREWING TECHNIQUE
As a German premium brewery, C. & A. VELTINS uses a special, gentle pitching procedure for the production of VELTINS Pilsener. The boiled wort is moved to open vats for fermentation.
After adding our own selected pure yeast and without applying any technical pressure, the fermentation can take place without hurry.
This is how the especially fresh character of our VELTINS Pilsener is created.
