Hofbräuhaus
Hell
A true Munich Pale Lager
On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Purity Law, our brewers developed a new beer in a new package in 2016, using the pale lager from Hofbräuhaus. "Hofbräuhaus Hell" is a smooth, easy-drinking, and pleasantly hopped Munich pale lager. A delight for all beer connoisseurs who appreciate the traditional Bavarian lifestyle! It doesn't get more Munich than this: genuine Munich beer, a true Munich brewery, and authentic Hofbräuhaus.

A Bit of Hofbräuhaus
Always Hits the Spot
Hofbräuhaus Hell is a clear-filtered pale lager with a straw-yellow color and a firm, fine-pored foam head. It has a pleasantly spicy aroma with a hint of fresh lemon. On the palate, the full-bodied beer is lively and mild with a gentle acidity. Its malty, full-bodied character makes it a smooth companion for any occasion. The three hop varieties used contribute to a slightly straw-like and grassy note with a hoppy-spicy finish. It’s definitely worth indulging in a second bottle!
Chilled from the fridge, our Hofbräuhaus Hell tastes best with finger foods, grilled dishes, light fish dishes, pizza and pasta, burgers, roasts, and mild cheeses.
The Trademark
The trademark HB with a crown is the oldest beer brand in Munich. In 1879, HB brewery director Johann Nepomuk Staubwasser registered the Hofbräuhaus trademark first with the Munich District Court and then with the Imperial Patent Office in Berlin "exclusively for the Royal Hofbräuhaus Munich." Since the Imperial Patent Office only opened in 1877, "HB with a crown" is one of the oldest German trademarks and adorns both the crown cork and the beer crate.
Tradition and Modernity Combined in Beer Enjoyment
The Hofbräuhaus stands for authentic Munich beer tradition. With the "Helles" in the brown, rounded Euro bottle (0.5l) and the small Viralia bottle (0.33l), Hofbräuhaus brings a touch of 1950s nostalgia to beer enjoyment. This full-bodied beer blends old traditions with modern brewing art, and even the design harks back to the time when the pale lager became "the" Munich beer. The label, featuring the Bavarian diamond pattern, the Bavarian coat of arms, and the nostalgic HB with crown, pays homage to an earlier label used for Hofbräu Munich's dark export beer from the 1950s to the 1970s.
