Sternburg Export, affectionately called "Sterni," is the best-selling and most iconic beer of East Germany from the Sternburg Brewery in Leipzig, whose history dates back to 1822, when the Leipzig merchant Maximilian Speck acquired the Lützschena manor and was elevated to the rank of baron by King Ludwig I – a title that still gives the beer its name today. A bottom-fermented, light amber full beer with noble spiciness and particularly easy-drinking taste, Sternburg Export convinces with its golden-clear color, a stable foam crown, spicy grain notes on the palate, a subtle malt sweetness, and a pleasantly light hop bitterness finish that emphasizes its unmistakable character. Sternburg Export is the honest, down-to-earth choice for all who appreciate an easy-drinking, reliable, and affordable German export beer with genuine cult status and over 200 years of brewing history, which, with its legendary reputation, has become a symbol of East German beer culture and unpretentious drinking pleasure far beyond the borders of Leipzig.
