History[edit | edit source]

The origins of Dojlidy Brewery date back to 1768 when it was founded by the Branicki family, a prominent noble family in Poland. The brewery was initially part of the Branicki estate and was used to produce beer for the local community and the estate's workers.

During the 19th century, the brewery underwent significant modernization, incorporating new brewing techniques and expanding its production capacity. By the early 20th century, Dojlidy Brewery had become one of the leading breweries in the region, known for its high-quality beer.
