Weissbier is a traditional, typically Bavarian speciality beer. According to the Bavarian Beer Purity Law, a Weissbier must be brewed using top-fermented yeast and with a wheat malt content of at least 50% of the total amount of malt used. Outside Bavaria, Weissbier is therefore known as “Weizenbier” (wheat beer) or simply “Weizen” (wheat). The terms “Weizenbier” and “Weissbier” are therefore synonyms. The same applies to non-alcoholic Weissbier and non-alcoholic wheat beer. Even if Weissbier and wheat beer mean the same thing, the traditional roots of this type of beer are of course here in Bavaria. So it's no wonder that our Paulaner Weissbiers, brewed with many years of experience, are appreciated so much even outside Bavaria.
