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. 

 Here is the list-
 

 

1.Belgian Wit Bier 

 

Belgian Wit Bier

 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. Kingfisher: The latest entrant in the Indian bottleless beer segment, beer market leader Kingfisher is all set to ride the craft wave with this witty beer.

 Hefeweizen: 
 This German hazy wheat beer has so much banana and frame flavor thanks to the yeast that many palates can't stand it, so a lemon we hdge helps lift it. It can be made from both malted and unmalted wheat. In Germany, Hefe is made from yeast or beer, usually unfiltered yeast introduced by Weihenstephan, who claims to be the world's oldest brewery through their beer.
