This Oktoberfest, Melbourne diners are invited to experience a taste of brewing history that transcends the ordinary beer festival. From September 13th to October 18th, 2025, Edelwyss Bistro & Bar will be showcasing an exclusive selection of premium draught beers from Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan – officially recognised as the World’s Oldest Brewery.
That’s right. You can drink history.
Founded in 1040 AD by Benedictine monks, Weihenstephan isn’t just a brewery; it’s the origin story of modern beer. For nearly a thousand years, they’ve perfected what many have tried to imitate. This is your chance to taste the liquid gold that set the standard for the world, right here in Melbourne.
Why is Weihenstephan a non-negotiable must-try?
Forget heavy, bland beers. Weihenstephan’s magic is in its perfect balance. Brewed under the strict German Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) with only four ingredients, each sip is a masterpiece of flavour: complex yet incredibly smooth, rich yet refreshingly drinkable. This is the champagne of beers, crafted over a millennium.
Edelwyss Bistro & Bar, the new restaurant at the Swiss Club of Victoria, 89 Flinders Lane Melbourne, is the perfect Melbourne home for this celebration. The restaurant will feature a curated selection of Weihenstephan’s finest:
For those looking to explore further, the offering will also include the crystal-clear Weihenstephaner Kristall, the rich and malty Tradition Dark Lager, and the unfiltered, naturally cloudy Kellerbier with its full-bodied, earthy flavour.
But what’s a legendary beer without legendary food?
We’re pairing these historic pours with an authentic Bratwurst feast from our kitchen. Sink your teeth into:
All served with tangy sauerkraut, authentic Bavarian mustard, and classic potato salad. It’s the perfect, savoury partnership that your taste buds will thank you for.
don’t just drink a beer. Drink a piece of history. Prost!
