Brewery Overview
At Tucher Traditionsbrauerei’s two-city Brewhouse, the brewery’s unique story is built into its name, as the building straddles the border between Furth and Nuremberg, Germany – two Northern Bavarian cities with proud heritages. So prevalent is this cultural divide, that the border is marked throughout the brewery for all to see.
The attention to detail doesn’t stop there, as Tucher has been producing remarkably consistent and clean beer for more than 350 years. A brewing range that stretches from their iconic wheat beers to an oak-aged Rotbier native to Nuremberg adheres to Bavarian brewing heritage across the board. With the cleanest of water sourced from the brewery’s own wells and a dedication to only using first-generation yeast, the Reinheitsgebot (German Purity Law) is alive and well in its beers.

Description
Where many of its competitors release similarly-flavored dark wheat beers, Tucher's iconic Sapienza yeast allows for Helles Dunkelweiss to retain the nuttiness expected from the style, while allowing for a bouquet of bright fruit notes to shine through. Hints of date and lemon provide for a wider pairing range, with the roast to hold up as the menu turns to the spoils of an autumn hunt.
