    Gelender

    Sarajevo, Federacija Bosne i Hercegovine, Bosnia and Herzegovina

    Gelender is a handrail that we often see in Sarajevo (and Bosnian) streets. There is a discipline in snowboarding, that is, actually the skill of riding snowboard on such handrails whether it is street style snowboarding just for fun, or official sports competitions. Riding (sliding) snowboard on a handrail is such a discipline that requires a perfect balance of speed, skill and style, just as you need a perfect balance of malt, yeast and hops to get great beer, such as Gelender.

    Sarajevska Pivara

    Sarajevo, Federacija Bosne i Hercegovine, Bosnia and Herzegovina

    Preteča današnje Sarajevske pivare, postrojenje koje je otvorio industrijalac Jozef Fedbauer, počelo je sa radom 24. maja davne 1864. godine. Ovo je bio prvi industrijski pogon u BiH. Za vrijeme austrougarske vladavine, Sarajevska pivara udružena sa pivarom industrijalca Heinricha Lövyja i još nekim manjim pivarama postaje Dionička pivara. Svoj proizvod tadašnja pivara izvozi u susjedne zemlje, a 1916. godine, proizvodnja iznosi 150.000 hektolitara. Pivara biva nacionalizovana u Kraljevini SHS između dva svjetska rata, 1923. godine, i u tome periodu kupuje pivare u Slavonskom Brodu i Petrovaradinu, te pravi fabriku slada u Skoplju. Drugi svjetski rat nanosi izvjesne štete pogonima pivare. Godine 1947. ponovo je nacionalizovana i ime joj je promijenjeno u ono koje nosi i danas: Sarajevska pivara. Rast proizvodnje pivara bilježi do 1980. godine, kada nastaje blagi pad, da bi, kada 1984. godine na poziciju generalnog direktora dolazi gosn. Hilmo Selimović, proizvodnja krenula ka stalnom stabilnom rastu. Godine 1991. Sarajevska pivara je jedna od 4 vodeće pivare u tadašnjoj Jugoslaviji. Rat 1992 - 1995. godine ostavio je velike ožiljke na ovoj kompaniji, ali u periodu od 1996. do 2004. radi se na novim ulaganjima i sanaciji porušenoga. Godine 1998. sklapa se trogodišnji ugovor sa Coca-Colom, 2002. počinje suradnja sa Pepsico International koja traje do danas, a ugovor se proširuje 2006. godine kada Sarajevska pivara započinje suradnju sa Pepsi Lipto

    Z. Z. Livač

    Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina

    „Proizvodnja piva u manastiru Marija Zvijezda počinje 1873. godine, zbog čega i danas na svakoj flaši Nektar piva imate odštampanu upravo tu godinu. Trapistički redovnici pivo su počeli da proizvode za svoje potrebe, a u samom početku tehnologija proizvodnje bila je njemačka, jer je utemeljitelj Franc Faner došao u Banjaluku iz njemačkog samostana, gdje se već konzumiralo pivo. Faner je za te potrebe preuredio malu siranu koja je bila u krugu samostana i nazvao je ’mala pivara’“
