Hofbräu Original
Elegant and delicately flavorful
Our bottom-fermented Hofbräu Original embodies the unique atmosphere of Munich, the beer capital, like no other. It rightfully bears the title of Munich Helles (g.g.A). Its full-bodied, slightly malty taste with a refined finish has made it world-famous. Its rich and exceptionally mature taste provides a sophisticated bitterness in the finish. Light malt notes and a delicate hop aroma create a harmonious interplay. Rich and exceptionally mature taste. Sophisticated bitterness in the finish. A beer with character!

Hofbräu Dunkel
Malty and hoppy.
Hofbräu Dunkel is a bottom-fermented dark beer that can be considered the original Bavarian beer in the “Munich style.” It has a roasted malt flavor, hoppy notes, and a subtle malt sweetness in the finish. Dark beer existed in Bavaria long before the Helles style. In fact, it was the Dunkel that was first brewed at the “Braunes Hofbräuhaus” when it was founded in the year 1589. A beer with genuine Munich tradition!

Goes well with Hofbräuhaus cuisine, especially roasts, smoked meats and sausage dishes.
Hofbräu Münchner Weisse
Refreshing and effervescent
Once, brewing wheat beer (Weißbier) was a privilege exclusive to the ducal court. For nearly 200 years, Hofbräuhaus held this exclusive right, establishing a virtual monopoly on wheat beer in Bavaria. It’s no wonder that Hofbräu München has mastered the art of brewing Weißbier so well. The top-fermented beer “Münchner Weisse” is a secret tip for all wheat beer enthusiasts who appreciate its lively and effervescent taste.
