Kuflowe

Kuflowe is a Polish beer brand that takes its name from the «kufel», the classic Polish beer mug, and has specialised in robust, straightforward beers for sociable everyday occasions. For years the beer was brewed by the Namysłów brewery, which had its sites in Namysłów in Lower Silesia and Braniewo in former East Prussia and traces back to a brewing history reaching into the Middle Ages. After Grupa Żywiec took over the brewery in 2019, the Kuflowe brand today belongs, together with other brands of the former brewery such as Braniewo, to the portfolio of Van Pur, the largest independent brewing company in Poland, which ranks among the four main players on the Polish beer market.

Van Pur operates six breweries, each with its own history and character and whose beers are strongly shaped by the traditions of their regions, and the brand portfolio includes, alongside Kuflowe, among others Łomża, Van Pur, Karpackie, Brok, Braniewo, Śląskie, Halne, Solveza, Edelmeister and Van Pur Malt. The group sees itself as a proven partner also in the field of private labels and offers non-alcoholic malt drinks in addition to beer. The Kuflowe brand stands for price-conscious, robust beers that appeal to a broad audience.

The brand's flagship is Kuflowe Mocne, a pale, strong lager at 7.0 to 7.2% ABV, regarded in Poland as number one among strong beers. It is golden amber in colour and offers an expressive flavour, noticeable strength and practical packaging that make it the best-selling beer in its category, and it is served at 7 to 10 °C. Alongside it the brand offers Kuflowe Wiśniowe, a strong beer with a cherry note, also at 7% ABV. The beers are available in 0.5-litre cans and bottles as well as in PET bottles of 0.66 and 1 litre and stand for a piece of Polish drinking culture in which a strong beer in a mug belongs to barbecue evenings, gatherings with friends and after-work rounds.
