Recently, LeVeL33 restaurant and bar in Singapore was officially recognized by the Guinness World Records as the "World's Tallest Craft Brewery," with an impressive height of 149.32 meters above the ground.
True to its name, LeVeL33 officially opened in 2010 on the 33rd floor of Marina Bay Financial Centre Tower 1. The restaurant is not only notable for its elevated brewery concept but is also a favorite destination for locals and tourists alike thanks to its stunning panoramic views of the Singapore skyline.

The journey to conquer records
Building a 7,500 m² brewery on the 33rd floor of a skyscraper is no simple task. Martin Bem, founder of LeVeL33, shared that while the height doesn't affect the brewing process, transporting the entire equipment system up there was a major challenge. "We encountered many difficulties, especially transporting the equipment to the 33rd floor – something unprecedented," Bem said.

The brewing equipment was ordered from Europe. Because the building's elevators were too small, the construction team had to dismantle part of the building's exterior and use cranes to lift 12 tanks, two copper brewing vessels, and a chiller. Additionally, to ensure sufficient water pressure for the production process, LeVeL33 also had to install a 1,000-liter backup water tank.
Bem's bold plan paid off; after 15 years in operation, this beer bar has become a culinary and architectural highlight in Singapore, a familiar stop for beer enthusiasts both local and international.

At LeVeL33, all beers are brewed on-site, blending traditional and modern styles. A glass of beer starts at SGD 16.90. More than just a place to enjoy beer, LeVeL33 attracts customers with its open design, where copper beer tanks become an integral part of the space.
LeVeL33's beer menu features familiar options like IPAs and stouts, but the highlight is its Brut Beer line – a collaboration with the Champagne brand Barons de Rothschild – which is served exclusively at the bar.

Thanks to its ideal elevation, diners can enjoy beer while admiring Singapore's iconic landmarks such as the Marina Bay Sands hotel with its rooftop infinity pool, the silver lotus-shaped ArtScience Museum, or the Singapore Flyer Ferris wheel. The bar is especially crowded at sunset, when many people flock there to admire the skyline from the high floor and capture memorable moments.

From now on, the Guinness World Record logo will appear on the cans of our flagship Blond Lager beer – the most meaningful gift for the entire staff on the occasion of our 15th anniversary.
Mr. Bem revealed that the certification process took two months, including collecting documents from the Singapore Building and Construction Authority and inviting experts to conduct an assessment. The total cost for the entire process amounted to over 20,000 SGD. He jokingly compared the process to knowing you're the fastest runner in the world but still wanting to win an Olympic gold medal.
