Krombacher Brauerei is one of the largest privately owned breweries in Germany and ranks number 2 among Germany's best selling breweries.

The brewery was founded on February 4, 1803 by Johannes Haas. His father Johann Eberhard Haas was running a tavern in Krombach. According to a regulation of July 25, 1618 the sale of beer was permitted only to restaurants having their own brewery and malt kiln. Therefore, John Haas established the brewery within in the family business.

The water for the brewery was first brought in barrels from a spring at the foot of Grumberg in the west of the village by ox cart to the brewery.

The relocation to its current site in Krombach is estimated to have occurred between 1858 and 1879/82.
