Brauerei Brinkhoff carries the lineage of the Dortmunder Union brewery, which grew out of Wilhelm Struck's small brewery and was incorporated in 1873. Its namesake, Fritz Brinkhoff, was Union's first brewmaster and helped establish the pale Dortmund beer type. The company took its current name in 2002 and belongs to the Radeberger Gruppe. The range centres on a single pils, joined by an alcohol-free version, and the brand has been Borussia Dortmund's stadium beer since 2008.
