For the past two hundred years, Bielawa has been mainly associated with the textile industry. The industry’s factories and supporting facilities were successively expanded, and the Bielbaw or Bieltex companies were known throughout Europe. And so it went on until the first decade of the 21st century. Today, Bielawa is a city of many talents, oriented towards a diverse industry, drawing on the traditions and attractions of the region. In the current of these changes, the SOWIE Craft Brewery has found its place in the production halls of the former Bieltex since autumn 2017. It was then that the first brew of Sowie Pils was brewed at the Brewery.
The captivating beauty of the Sowie Mountains is a challenge and motivation to work. Our beer must be as perfect as the surrounding nature, as stunning and natural. This is the reason for our emphasis on beer classics, bottom-fermented products, lagers, pilsners, March beers or wheat beers.
