Top 8 Wheat Beer Brands In India In 2023 - 2024

Wheat beers are a favorite among Indian craft beers due to their fruitiness and usually low IBU (International Bitterness Units). So what is wheat beer? Wheat beers use more wheat than barley to make the beer, and the higher protein content of the former results in cloudy beers, but gives the beers a fuller, thicker mouthfeel. Wheat, unlike malted barley, does not add much of its own flavor to the final product, and therefore yeast plays a very important role in flavor. The two most popular types of wheat in India are Hefeweizen and Belgian Wit. Let's look at both one by one and list the Indian brands in bottles for you. 

 Wit Bier is made in Belgium with at least 50% unmalted wheat, which distinguishes them from the German style and the coriander and orange peel spices that the Belgians add to this style. They could add more spices but above are the basics. Hoegaarden revived that style around the world and especially in India with his ritual of adding an orange slice to the glass.
