Wheat Beers

A regal pleasure

The great Nuremberg wheat brewing tradition started with the commoners –with the city’s brewery known as ‘Städtisches Weizenbrauhaus’ in the year 1672. Under the first Bavarian King Maximilian I it became the noble ‘Royal Bavarian Brewery’ or ‘königlich-bayerisches Weizenbräuhaus’ in 1806. To this day, our wheat beers are brewed in the tradition of the formerly royal Bavarian brewery in Nuremberg. For our surface fermented wheat beers, we only use yeast from our proprietary pure cultures to ensure a unique wheat beer experience.

Tucher Helles Hefe Weizen (Pale Wheat Beer)

A full beer glass sits beside a sealed bottle on a wooden table.

Our cloudy Helles Hefe Weizen is brewed in the tradition of the former Royal Bavarian Brewery in Nuremberg. Our proprietary yeast and special wheat malts and light barley malts lend this beer its aromatic yeast character: it starts off with a prickly-lemony sensation, with full-bodied notes of banana and kiwifruit, and has a lasting tangy and sparkling finish.
