On July 7th, 2022 our co-shareholder Dr. Michael Flämig died suddenly at the age of 46.
Born on June 5th, 1976 in Bamberg as the first of two children of Irmtraut Flämig, née Weyermann, he spent his school days in Bamberg.
He completed his studies in economics in Würzburg.
After his doctorate to Dr. re. pol in insurance law, he worked as an assistant at the University of Bamberg before joining Weyermann® in 2007 as an assistant to the management, where he was given power of attorney.
In 2015, after 7 years at Weyermann®, he decided to start his own business (Neoventi).
Dr. Michael Flämig leaves behind 2 sons aged 13 and 10 and his wife Natascha.
A new wet milling system and a big bag unit go into operation at the Heinz Weyermann® extract brewery.
With these technical innovations, various malt blends can be run, even with the smallest quantities of specialty malts, making it possible to perfectly customize conventional or organic malt extracts.
The pioneer of Weyermann® turns 65: President Thomas Kraus-Weyermann celebrates his birthday.
The entrepreneur, author, and renowned industry expert turned the family-owned company into the world market leader in specialty malts together with his wife Sabine Weyermann.
For his birthday, Thomas Kraus-Weyermann received many birthday videos from companions, international partners, and the Weyermann® team.
He also got a unique beer from the Weyermann® Brew Manufacture: The Weyermann® No. 65 Heirloom Pioneer Thomas. He shared this special beer with the entire Weyermann® team.
COO Jürgen Buhrmann celebrates his 60th birthday and 30 years at Weyermann®.
His passion for malt, visionary technical ambition, and absolute dedication to people and products contribute considerably to the success of Weyermann®. These two special anniversaries mark a special moment for the entire company.
As a gesture of appreciation, the Weyermann® Brew Manufacture brewed a special barrel-aged bock beer: the Weyermann® No. 30 Jürgen’s matured wheatsdom.
A significant capacity expansion of the Heinz Weyermann® Roasted Malt Brewery is realized with new equipment.

In addition, a new wort cooler, water tank, and mash finisher are build in. A newly installed big bag discharge system guarantees maximum flexibility in the use of a wide variety of malt blends for the production of aroma-rich malt extracts.
The modernization measures considerably reduce the roasted malt brewery’s CO2 emissions.
Thomas Kraus-Weyermann celebrates his 30th anniversary at the company. Since 1999, together with Sabine Weyermann, he shaped the company to become the world leader for specialty malts.
For this occasion, Thomas Kraus-Weyermann happily shares the enjoyment of his specially brewed beer with all employees and grants each one a six-pack of the Weyermann® “No. 91 Export Experte Thomas”.
Two reasons to celebrate:
Weyermann® celebrates the 35th anniversary of Sabine Weyermann, 4th generation, as well as the 10th anniversary of the 5th generation, Franziska Weyermann.
With touching speeches and the specially brewed “No. 35 Sabine’s Espresso Stout”, the great merits of Sabine Weyermann and Franziska Weyermann were celebrated at this unique occasion.
The worldwide Covid pandemic challenges Weyermann®.
The Weyermann family promptly thought about what they could do to help during this challenging and difficult time. The idea was formed to produce ethanol in their own distilleries, in order to counter the shortage of disinfectants.
The ethanol was supplied to local pharmacies at cost price. The pharmacies used the alcohol for the professional production of sanitizers.
The English version of the book “Dark Lagers” is well received by the international brewing community. The publication is a joint project of Thomas Kraus-Weyermann and the renowned brewing journalist Horst Dornbusch.
Dark Lagers is a unique book that describes the special features of one of the world’s oldest and most misunderstood beer types.
140 years Weyermann®: The strong family business – with its reliable bridges to 135 countries around the world – is celebrated in a grand manner. Employees, worldwide customers, distribution partners, and close associates celebrate the anniversary year at various events.
The story of a boss and his company is always a love story. When the boss loves the company, he puts his passion into it and thus gives the company a soul – at Weyermann®, this love story exists for 140 years now!
