The Brewery Tucher Bräu, who's history began in Nürnberg (Bavaria, Germany) in 1672, has been owned by Bavaria’s Royal family for part of its history. The family of the Barons of Tucher (Freiherrlich von Tucher’schen Familie) bought the brewing rights for a wheat beer brewery in 1855 and became a brewing dynasty.
Even though The Brewery Tucher Bräu had several owners since then, the beer name remained the same: Tucher. The owners introduced steam technology into their factory and started exporting their beer beyond the Bavarian Border. Today, Tucher beers are exported to countries throughout Europe, North and South America, Africa and Asia.
