This liquid gold from the oldest wheat beer brewery in Germany is a must-try
The history of wheat beer is intertwined with the history of the Schneider brewing family and its famous “Schneider Weisse” or Schneider wheat beer.
About 200 years ago, wheat beer could only be brewed by the Bavarian royal family in the breweries. In 1872, King Ludwig II discontinued brewing wheat beer due to a decline in sales.
Saving Wheat Beer from Extinction
That very year, King Ludwig II sold the exclusive right to brew wheat beer to Georg I Schneider. Thus, the Schneider family is credited with saving wheat beer from extinction!
Today, Georg VI Schneider is running the brewery in Kelheim, which the family acquired in 1972, and has remained the Schneider Weisse brewery to this day.
Traditional & Natural
Schneider Weisse is the oldest wheat beer brewery in Bavaria and Germany. Wheat beer has been brewed there without interruption since its founding.
Today, Schneider Weisse has a range of different beers. All are pure, natural beers brewed with raw materials from the region.
