Munchner Kindl Weissbier

Once upon a time, Weissbier could only be brewed by ducal privilege. Hofbräuhaus enjoyed this exclusive right for nearly 200 years, thus holding a monopoly on Weissbier in Bavaria.

But even without a monopoly, Münchner Kindl Weissbier is a really special kind of beer. What could be more pleasurable than quenching your thirst with a deliciously yeasty Weissbier, and savouring the tingling, fizzy sensation in your mouth? With an alcoholic content of around 5.1% volume, it's pure, refreshing enjoyment.

Type: Top-fermented Weissbier, aka Weizenbier (from Weizen = wheat)

With its powerfully aromatic flavour and its alcohol content of some 7.2% volume, Hofbräu Maibock marks one of the high points in the beer-lover's calendar!
