SECRET RECIPES CRAFTING THE WORLD’S FINEST BEER AT BA NA
July 7, 2024, Sun World Ba Na Hills celebrated a significant milestone by launching its first batch of Sun KraftBeer at the newly opened Bana Brew House.
This brewery has been a vision for Ba Na for a decade, driven by the ambition to craft a signature beer brand that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the finest beers worldwide. The project officially kicked off in the Summer of 2024 in partnership with BrauKon, a renowned German brewery with over a century of expertise in beer production. Bana Brew House features cutting-edge, fully automated brewing systems, ensuring that each step— from ingredient selection to the final product— adheres to the highest standards.
Camba Bavaria has expertly assembled the brewing formula and team. This German brewery painstakingly sources the finest ingredients from Germany, New Zealand, and the USA. As a result, Sun KraftBeer offers a genuine European beer experience at Ba Na.
The visionary behind Sun KraftBeer is Tim Burkardt, an Australian Brewmaster known as the maestro of exceptional beer brands. After completing an intensive six-year brewing apprenticeship in Germany, he became a certified Brewmaster. His expertise guarantees that every batch of Sun KraftBeer embodies the essence of premium German beer, setting a new benchmark in the market.
