Weihenstephaner Discovery Gift Set – 4 German Beers & 2 Glasses

Discover four distinctive expressions of Bavarian brewing tradition with this Weihenstephaner gift set. It brings together four 50cl bottles with deliberately contrasting profiles, accompanied by two Weihenstephaner glasses to enjoy each beer at its best.

From the aromatic richness of a Weizenbock to the refreshing character of a Pils, together with a delicately malty Helles and a generously fruity Weissbier, this selection offers an opportunity to compare several classic German beer styles in one complete set.

The 4 Beers in the Gift Set

Weihenstephan Vitus – Weizenbock – 7.7% – 50cl

Weihenstephan Vitus is the most powerful beer in this selection. This rich and generous Weizenbock combines characteristic wheat beer notes of ripe banana and clove with an appealing malty complexity.

On the palate, its full-bodied texture and gentle sweetness provide a particularly indulgent character. Its strength is beautifully balanced by fruity and spicy notes, leading to a smooth and persistent finish. A beer to be enjoyed slowly and savoured.

Weihenstephaner Original – Helles – 5.1% – 50cl

Lighter and particularly refreshing, Weihenstephaner Original represents the classic Bavarian Helles style. Its pale appearance accompanies an elegant profile dominated by soft malt notes and a deliberately subtle bitterness.

Balanced and refreshing, it is an exceptionally approachable beer. It provides an excellent contrast to the more powerful or aromatic beers in the set and is particularly enjoyable during the warmer months, as an aperitif or alongside a relaxed meal.

Weihenstephaner Pils – Pils – 5.1% – 50cl

Weihenstephaner Pils introduces a livelier, more hop-driven dimension to the selection. Clear and golden in appearance, it offers a crisp character accompanied by herbal notes and refreshing carbonation.

The palate focuses on precision and freshness, with a clean yet balanced bitterness. Its dry and refreshing finish gives it a personality that contrasts beautifully with the soft malt character of Original Helles and the fruity qualities of the wheat beers included in the set.

Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier – Weissbier – 5.4% – 50cl

Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier represents one of Bavaria's most iconic beer styles. Naturally cloudy, it reveals an expressive aromatic profile featuring characteristic banana and clove notes.

Its creamy texture and fruity character give the beer an appealing richness while maintaining excellent freshness. This classic and flavoursome Weissbier complements Vitus particularly well: both share some characteristic wheat beer aromas while offering very different levels of strength and intensity.

Two Weihenstephaner Glasses Included

The gift set also includes two Weihenstephaner glasses. Their inclusion transforms this selection into a complete tasting set and makes it ideal for discovering and sharing the different beers together.

The glasses also make this an attractive gift for anyone who appreciates German and Bavarian beers, with everything needed to begin the tasting experience included in the set.

A Journey Through Four Beer Styles

The appeal of this gift set lies in the diversity of its four beers. To appreciate their contrasting profiles progressively, begin with Original Helles, with its smooth and malty character, before moving on to the Pils, which is drier and more hop-driven.

The Hefeweissbier then introduces the fruity and spicy aromas traditionally associated with wheat beer, before finishing with Vitus, the richest and most powerful beer in the selection at 7.7% ABV.
