 | | The Bitburger Brewery traces its origins to 1817 when Johann Peter Wallenborn, then a 33-year-old brewer from the town of Kyllburg in the Eifel, left his father's brewery and struck out on his own, opening a brewery in Bitburg. |
 | | The Bitburger beers in those times were similar to most beers brewed in Germany--dark ales or perhaps early predecessors of lagers, but always dark in color. |
 | | The Bitburger Brewery's slogan, today famous throughout Germany and in many parts of the world, first appeared in 1937--"Bitte ein Bit" ("Please a Bit-burger) is today used as a handwritten slogan and logo in advertising and on beer glasses, beer mats and many other brewery gift items. |
