147149## About <!--about-->
148150Beck's Pils is the flagship pilsner of the Bremen brewery founded in 1873, sold here in the 0.5-litre returnable green glass bottle that the old Barcodepedia catalogued under EAN-8 41001318 in 2008.[^oldsite] The back label declares "Pils · Alk. 4,9 % vol." over an ingredient statement of brewing water, barley malt and hops, and the beer is brewed to the German Reinheitsgebot.[^offreinheit] The food business operator printed on the pack is Anheuser-Busch InBev Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG of Am Deich 18/19, 28199 Bremen,[^impressum] and the brewery has belonged to the Belgian group since Interbrew bought it for 1.8 billion euros in February 2002.[^dewiki] A 2024 photograph of the same bottle adds a deposit line in Swiss francs beside the German Mehrweg wording.[^offdepot]

|             | markets   | disputed | Open Food Facts lists countries_tags of Belgium, France and Germany. Nothing on the pack or in any listing supports Belgium or France, so they are not in country_of_sale; the photographs filed under the French language key show a German-language pack.                                                                                              | ^off   |
| label-2017  | nutrition | stale    | The only legible nutrition panel is the 2017-05-05 photograph. The ingredient and deposit photographs are from 2024 and no maker page or trade sheet with figures was found, so the panel may predate the current label.                                                                                                                                 |        |

The front roundel prints "BREMEN · GERMANY EST 1873" as part of the brewery's mark, which is not an origin declaration, so country_of_origin is left empty.                                                                                                                                |        |

## About <!--about-->
Beck's Pils is the flagship pilsner of the Bremen brewery founded in 1873, sold here in the 0.5-litre returnable green glass bottle that the old Barcodepedia catalogued under EAN-8 41001318 in 2008.[^oldsite] The back label declares "Pils · Alk. 4,9 % vol." over an ingredient statement of brewing water, barley malt and hops, and the beer is brewed to the German Reinheitsgebot.[^offreinheit] The food business operator printed on the pack is Anheuser-Busch InBev Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG of Am Deich 18/19, 28199 Bremen,[^impressum] and the brewery has belonged to the Belgian group since Interbrew bought it for 1.8 billion euros in February 2002.[^dewiki] A 2024 photograph of the same bottle adds a deposit line in Swiss francs beside the German Mehrweg wording.[^offdepot]

Heinrich Beck, Lüder Rutenberg and Thomas May founded the Kaiser-Brauerei Beck & May in Bremen's Neustadt on 27 June 1873; the pilsner developed from 1876 won a gold medal in Philadelphia, and the key of the Bremen coat of arms, slanted the other way after the city objected, became the mark still on the label.[^enwiki] Beck's is exported to roughly 120 countries and remains the range's anchor alongside Gold, Blue and Unfiltered.[^becksde]
