Our light wheatbeer
For calorie-conscious beer lovers.
Sometimes less is what you need. Our light beer is the right choice for those who appreciate a reduced level of alcohol and calories.
This wheat beer is light on its feet: delicate malt and hop notes and a refined acidity characterize its lean body. By contrast, its sparkling carbonation doesn't hold back and delivers a strongly tingling sensation on the tongue – very lively! With an ABV of 3.1%, ERDINGER Leicht has about 40% less alcohol and calories than a classic wheat beer. A modest alternative for connoisseurs. Brewed according to the Bavarian Purity Law: water, malt, hops and yeast. And nothing else.

Our spring water
Our malt
Malt gives the beer its body and colour. Our experienced master brewers select very special wheat and barley varieties as well as roasted malt for our ERDINGER Leicht.
Our hops
The soul of a beer. ERDINGER’s master brewers use exquisite hop varieties that give our wheat beer a mildly aromatic bitterness.
Our yeast
Top-fermenting yeast gives wheat beer its typical fruity aroma. ERDINGER’s brewing yeast is specially cultivated in the brewery – and is absolutely unique.

ERDINGER Exclusive Glass
Tailor-made for our light beer – allowing the aromas to fully unfold
- The upper spherical shape concentrates the aromas and makes them appear more intensive.
- Due to the curved shape of the glass, the wheat beer enters the mouth behind the tip of the tongue when drinking. This emphasizes its fresh and light character.
- The subtle aromas can fully develop and the lightness of the beer appears pleasant and refreshing.
