The tradition of brewing beer in the city under the Urpin hill began as early as 1501 and is now being followed by the modern brewery built in the Radvaň - Kráľová, which began operating on 13 August 1971 as Pivovar Urpín (Urpin Brewery) with the production capacity of 350 thousand hectolitres of beer per year. Company Banskobystrický pivovar (The Banskobystricky Brewery) now builds on this tradition. On 1 May 2007, in order to restore the esteemed position the brewery had in the past, the new company management initiated a general renovation of the brewery including restructuring the technological equipment and revitalisation of sales and marketing activities. The company invested more than 4 million EUR in the general renovation and modernisation of the technological equipment of the brewery. After years of stagnation, the brewery has finally set out on the road to prosperity and development. Banskobystrický pivovar is a good example of how a Slovak company with no foreign capital can produce an excellent product, invest in technologies and support employment in the region of Central Slovakia, even in current difficult times. Banskobystricky pivovar, a.s. produces an exceptional Slovak beer, the Urpiner brand, characterised by original taste and brewed using traditional recipes. When the extraordinary beer Urpiner is brewed, only the unique ingredients are selected by the brewery masters – the water from the mountains sorrounding Banská Bystrica, the highest quality Slovak hop and the malt from Levice, which is grown on the fertile lands in the southern Slovakia. The Levice’s malt is the first and only malt in its category added to the Register of the EU protected geographical indications. The focus of Banskobystricky pivovar and its brand Urpiner is on high quality and original and unique taste. We will continue in the tradition tried and tested by time and will strive to create pleasant experiences for all Urpiner beer consumers. The Urpiner brand simply guarantees the quality of Banska Bystrica beer which is evident from numerous international awards won in tasting competitions.
