Giants of brewing history: Franz Andreas Paupie
Czech beer deity | In this latest installment of “Brewing Giants,” the story takes us back to the Czech Republic for a second look at this quintessential beer-producing nation. While a previous installment focused on Joseph Groll, a Bavarian immigrant and the inventor of pilsner, (BRAUWELT International no. 4, 2023, pp. 250–252), we now go back a little further in time to the turn of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th to revisit a true Czech brewer: Franz Andreas Paupie, spelled in his native language, František Ondřej Poupě. Unfortunately, very little personal information survives from this period apart from a few biographical details.
