The Spitalbrauerei in Regensburg is owned by the St. Katharinenspitalstiftung, a charitable foundation whose history dates to 1226, when Bishop Konrad IV granted the St. Katherine's Hospital its founding constitution. Brewing on the site is documented from 1238, when hospital residents received beer as a nightly allowance. The brewery describes itself as the world's oldest foundation brewery, with profits continuing to fund the foundation's nursing home and social services. The core range is traditional Bavarian: Spital Hell, Spital Dunkles, Festbier, Pils, and Weizen — the Hell and Dunkel each won a European Beer Star award (2011 and 2013 respectively).
