About Bofferding
Bofferding is the beer the brewery is generally known by, and its Pils Tradition — pale, 4.8 per cent alcohol and 21 IBU of bitterness — is the Luxembourg standard, sold in bottles, cans, packs and kegs. The range is small and deliberate: an alcohol-free version under 0.4 per cent that the brewery says keeps a profile close to the Pils, made from pure malt and hops with no added sugar, and a mahogany-coloured Christmas beer at 5.5 per cent with walnut aromas and a chocolate-edged bitterness.

About the owner: Brasserie Nationale
Brasserie Nationale is a privately held company headquartered in Bascharage, Luxembourg, founded in 1975. Brandtree records 4 brands under its control.
Brasserie Nationale is the Luxembourg brewery at Bascharage, created in 1975 by the merger of two much older houses: Funck-Bricher, founded in the Grund district of Luxembourg City in 1764, and Bofferding, founded at Bascharage in 1842 on the site the brewery still occupies. It bought the family-owned Brasserie Battin of Esch-sur-Alzette in 2004 and moved its brewing to Bascharage the following year, brought the Funck-Bricher name back in 2018 as an organic beer, and added the mineral water Lodyss in 2020. Those four names are everything it makes; the drinks it sells through its Munhowen distribution arm are other people's.
