Our Urweisse

ERDINGER Urweisse - In good old Bavarian style.

Our wheat beer for all who love strong Bavarian yeast notes! Its distinctive top-fermenting beer profile brings hints of ripe banana and clove typical of wheat beers. Our brew masters use caramel malt for Urweisse. Its slightly roasted flavour gives it a hearty character – a full-bodied and delicious enjoyment! And the slightly higher carbonic acid content makes it a sparkling taste sensation.

Fans of down-to-earth beers will love this rustic wheat beer treat.

Brewed according to the Bavarian Purity Law.

The right glass

Tailor-made for our Urweisse – allowing the aromas to fully unfold:

The wide opening of the glass lets the aromas appear very elegant, or even modest at the beginning.
Due to the large opening of the glass, the wheat beer enters the mouth behind the tip of the tongue and almost covers the entire tongue in a wide flow. This helps emphasize the beer’s lively character. At the same time, the powerful aromas can also be perceived well retro nasally.
The glass ensures a balanced development of the beer’s hearty character.
