The story
In 1881, the Fohrenburger site in Bludenz was able to produce 800,000 litres of Fohrenburger beer. In 1981, the amount of beer produced was 150,000 hectolitres (15 million litres), and in 2011, 193,000 hectolitres (19.3 million litres) of beer.
In 1998, the Fohrenburg brewery entered into a cooperation with Rauch Fruchtsäfte, a family-owned international operating fruit juice producer from Austria. In 2000, the brewery was acquired by Rauch.
On 1 May 2017, the Fohrenburg brewery and the beverage dealer s'Fäscht Wolfgang Sila GmbH officially merged.
In 2019, the Brau Union (an Austrian subcompany to the Heineken N.V.) has entered into agreements with which it increases its existing stake in the Fohrenburg Beteiligungs-AG from 11% to 74%.
Currently, the brewery operates three different sites: the main site in Bludenz, the original headquarters of s'Fäscht in Mäder and since 2012 a distribution warehouse in Schnann (Tyrol).
