One of Munich's first wheat beers. Then, as now, it derives its name from the Pschorr Brewery's traditional Stern, the old symbol of conviviality. This unique honey golden beer is brewed according to a traditional recipe using the greatest care, technical skill, and premium ingredients. It harmoniously combines the typical fruity aromas of Hacker-Pschorr Weisse with the malty tinge of Hacker-Pschorr Weisse Dark for an unparalleled experience of flavor.
This beer has a slightly hazy dark orange hue to the body. The aroma is a bit yeasty much like that of dark bread. Slight hints of cloves and bananna with some herbal notes fill your nose. Hacker-Pschorr Sternweisse's taste opens with a prominent coriander and clove spiciness. A sweet banana flavor and and orange notes quickly follow. As the beer warms some find hints of cinnamon. Hacker-Pschorr's Sternweisse is very easy to drink and a great session beer.
The swing top, which was first developed in 1877, stands for brewing tradition, technical skills and expertise. The 2002 relaunch of the vintage swing top bottle for our beer specialities in the German market was a great success. The reclosable switn top not only conveys a sensation of freshness when opening the bottle for the first time, it also makes the fresh and authentic beer flavor last even longer.
5.5% ABV
The history of the Hacker-Pschorr Brewery can be traced back as far as 1417. It was founded in Munich, Germany, 99 years before the enactment of the Rheinheitsgebot Purity Law of 1516. The Hacker-Pschorr brewing process has remained virtually unchanged for over 580 years. Something this good just isn't fooled with.
Georg Pschorr (1798-1867) was a well-known entrepreneur in Munich and the patriarch of the Pschorr brewing dynasty. He inherited the brewery from his father Josef Pschorr (1770-1841). Joseph married Maria Therese Hacker in 1793 and bought Hacker Brewery from his father-in-law. He then opened a second brewery and under the umbrella of the Hacker-Pschorr name grew the joint brewery to prominence in Munich. The modern HP logo combines both the original Hacker and Pschorr logos, but with the red circle around the "P" representing Josef's unending love for Therese
