Eichbaum
The Eichbaum beer brewing company is located in Mannheim/Baden-Württemberg in Germany. It was founded in 1679 by Mannheim's Councillor Jean du Chêne (which means "Eichbaum" in German).
Today the Eichbaum brewing company is owned by Actris AG. Dietmar Hopp, one founder of SAP AG, also owns Actris.
Eichbaum means oak tree in English.
In Mannheim the beer is sometimes lovingly called corpse water. The brewery is located next to a graveyard and the brewing water is directly pumped from the earth. However, this has no impact on the water quality, because several waterproof clays protect the fountain water against impurities. During the time that UMUC had a campus in Mannheim, this beer was a popular choice amongst its students. In some graduation ceremonies Eichbaum representatives had been invited.
