The Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan is a German brewery located on the site of the former Weihenstephan Abbey in Freising, Bavaria. In 2014, the total output was 382,341 hectolitres . The brewery advertises itself as "The World's Oldest Brewery", although this claim is disputed.
Until the 1950s, the brewery described its date of foundation as the year 1146. At this time, a document allegedly dating to the year 1040 resurfaced. In it, Otto I, Bishop of Freising bestowed a brewing right upon the abbey. The document is generally dismissed as a forgery from the early 1600s. The first written record of the brewery dates to the year 1675. Another source, dating to 768, indicates the presence of a hops garden nearby.
