Kompania Piwowarska
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kompania Piwowarska is a Polish brewery established in 1999. It brews Lech, a popular brandname of lager beer produced by the Lech Browary Wielkopolski in Poznań. Currently produced types are "Lech Premium", "Lech Pils" and "Lech Mocne" (i.e. Lech strong).
The Kompania Piwowarska S.A. company was established in 1999 as a result of merger of two Polish breweries, Lech Browary Wielkopolski S.A. and Browary Tyskie Górny Śląsk SA. The strategic investor of the company was the international brewing holding South African Breweries International (now SABMiller), which purchased a majority share in the 2 breweries in 1995-1996.
