Brotzeit International is a member of the FLA (Franchise and Licensing Association) of Singapore and the Franchise Council of Australia (FCA). Brotzeit International was awarded the Singapore Franchisor of the Year award in 2012^[5] by the Franchising and Licensing Association of Singapore.

Beer

Beer (or Bier) served at Brotzeit is brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot (a.k.a. German Beer Purity Law or Bavarian Purity Law), which was passed in 1516. Most outlets serve Paulaner, Löwenbräu or Krombacher, imported directly from Germany. In some cases, other brands of Munich-based Biers are also available.

They also offer a wine selection, consisting of primarily Austrian and German wines.

Celebrations

Traditional Bavarian festivals such as Oktoberfest, Maifest and Easter are celebrated at Brotzeit restaurants annually
