The story behind it

The maker

Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan is officially recognized as the oldest continuously operating brewery in the world, tracing its origins to the Benedictine monastery founded in 725 AD. Formally licensed to brew in 1040, the brewery masterfully balances its historic legacy with state-of-the-art science and technology.

How it is made

Brewed in accordance with centuries-old Bavarian traditions, this classic Hefeweizen is crafted at the historic hilltop site in Freising. The brewing process uses specialized top-fermenting yeast strains that impart the beer's signature aromatic profile.
