The brewery rapidly expanded and took over other breweries in the 1850's and 1860's including the Braueri Michelob in 1859, the Brauerei Steinbruch in 1862 and in 1869 the Brauerei Triest. in 1913 it merged with the Brauerei St Marx and it repeated this action again in 1927 and 1928 with several other breweries. In 1978 it was merged into the Brau Union Osterreich Aktiengesellschaft.
