We're currently preparing the registration for 2026.

What's special about this race is not only the distance of 80 kilometers, but also that it visits all Munich breweries. The challenge at this event is not only the distance, but that at each of the breweries, of course, a Munich beer is offered! The start is at 6:00am in the heart of the city - at Marienplatz. From the home of the Munich Hofbräu in Munich Riem, the route follows the scent of hops back to the center of the city to the breweries of Spaten and Löwenbräu, to the source of Giesinger beer in the northern Munich to Milbertshofen, west to Munich-Langwied to Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr as well as the tradition-conscious Augustiner Bräu. After a short stop at the construction site of the new Munich Kindl Brewery, the runners can then round off the evening with food and drink at the Giesinger Bräu in Giesing.

The focus is on having fun running together and, of course beer too! The Munich Breweries Ultra is a private event without any commercial background. The organizers are not liable for any damage or injury. The participants are responsible for their own health and fitness. The route is not closed to traffic and the rules of the road must be observed.

Prost!

Impressions of the Last Years

2025

The 5th Munich Breweries Ultra on May 31, 2025, saw a new attendance record: at times, over 50 people took part! With summery 27°C temperatures, every drinking fountain had to be used in addition to the beer stops.

Once again, huge thanks go to the amazing volunteers who made this event possible.

It was especially wonderful that the Giesinger and Paulaner/Hacker-Pschorr breweries joined us again and provided us runners with refreshing free beer.
