Story

The family’s brewing goes back to the 1990s. Founder Sándor Király hauled freight for German companies after 1989, which led to beer and brewery building. The family built one of Hungary’s first small breweries and, by their account, more than 150 breweries at home and abroad. Today his children run it; managing directors are Gergely Király and Henrietta Baranya.
