Jever comes from the town of Jever, which is located in Northern Germany, or more accurately Friesland. In its long, eventful history of more than 150 years, the "Friesische Brauhaus zu Jever" has become what it is today – one of the top ten breweries in Germany with some of the most up-to-date production facilities worldwide.

Because in Friesland the water is unusually pure and soft, we can add a little more hops when we're brewing our beer to create the slightly bitter Friesian taste that distinguishes Jever Pilsener from  other beers.

An exemplary eco-management system now ensures environmentally compatible brewing processes and efficient use of resources. In 1996 the Brewery was awarded an ISO 9001 certificate for high standards in quality          management.

Jever Pilsener continues to be an extremely popular beer. So in future the Brewery will continue to invest large sums in equipment to satisfy the huge demand for its beers.
