Innovation and Tradition
In 1895, Dr. Albert Doemens wrote into the journal of the newly founded 1st Munich Brewery Academy: That "the insight that practical knowledge, observance and sharpening of the senses form the most essential foundation for a successful career as a brewer shall become second nature to scholars".
With this vision, Dr. Albert Doemens laid the foundation for today's concept with which Doemens has become an institution in the international brewery, beverage and food industry.
