Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Although Hungary is better known as a wine-producing country, beer has been made there for around a thousand years and the country has a significant history of commercial beer production. The first commercial brewery in Hungary was established in Buda in 1845 by Peter Schmidt. During the heyday of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the KA'banya district of Budapest became the centre of Hungary's brewing industry. The Dreher brewery is named after Anton Dreher, the creator of the Vienna lager style. He created the brewery in Budapest in 1862 and it came to dominate the Hungarian market before the Second World War. Beer consumption has declined to 70 litres per capita since the 1980s when beer consumption was 100 litres per capita. Price wars are taking place between domestic product and imports from Western Europe which are gaining a firm market position. The main product is pale lager with approximately 90% of the market.
