Braumeister: Der Brauerei-Tycoon
From backyard to beer baron! Build your 19th-century brewing empire: grow hops, perfect recipes, sign contracts with taverns, and outsmart cunning AI rivals. An atmospheric turn-based economy tycoon with rich Belle Époque charm.
Become a Beer Baron – Build Your Brewing Empire!
Bavaria, 1873. The industrial revolution hits the brewing world. Steam engines replace manpower, railways open new markets – and a few daring brewers found dynasties that still stand 150 years later.
One of them could be yours.
Beer Baron: A Brewery Tycoon is a deep, turn-based economic simulation. You start with a small brewery – and a dream. What you make of it is entirely up to you: a solid family business, a regional market leader, or the beer empire of the century.
From Hop Field to Tavern
Every step of beer production is in your hands:
Lease fields and cultivate various hop and malt varieties – each with unique properties
Invest in machinery – from copper kettles to steam-powered bottling lines
Develop your own beer recipes and perfect them over generations
Store and age beer in your cellar – the right maturation time makes all the difference
Supply taverns across the region via contracts or the spot market
Hire employees – from apprentices to seasoned brewmasters
