BUY HACKER PSCHORR WEISS 6PK ONLINE | Grapes & Grains

Hacker-Pschorr Weisse, the brands flagship style, is a wheat beer from Bavaria that offers a refreshing taste for those who enjoy real beer. It has a mildly fruity taste and cloudy golden color. Wheat beer was originated in the German state of Bavaria, and typically called Weisse beer meaning white or Weizen meaning wheat. In Bavaria, German wheat beers represent nearly 20% of the beer category. What makes the beer distinct is the use of 60% malted wheat and 40% malted barley in the brewing process. Unlike lagers, wheat beer is top-fermented at higher temperatures. The top-fermentation and wheat produce hints of clove, giving Hacker-Pschorr Weisse a distinct flavor. Hacker-Pschorr Weisse has a cloudy appearance, characteristic of wheat beer. The cloudy appearance is due to yeast that is retained in the beer. A centrifuge process is used with traditional wheat beers to retain the yeast instead of the typical filtering process used with beers that are clear in appearance. The result of the masterful brewing process and heritage is a taste that is authentic, crisp and perfect all year-round. And when its topped with the thick, rich head from a masterful pour, the appearance is tantalizing.
