History of Viennese beer

The father of “Viennese” beer originates from Ternopil region - Austrian brewer Alfred von Wakano, who was born in the village of Kozova. He was the first to start brewing this type of beer, although at that time it was called “Viennese”, as this name was closer to Wakano.

The name of the beer was changed in 1930s, due to its “bourgeois” taste, which the Soviet leadership did not enjoy, so they “took the measures" and began to call it “Zhyhulivske”.
