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
To many, the festbiers of Bavaria are a liquid voyage to the tents of Oktoberfest. For Tucher, nestled in its home in northern Bavaria and out of reach of the festivals that overtake Munich's fairgrounds each fall, the focus is on Fruhlingsfest and celebrating the end of the cold winter months. As such, this festbier is brewed as a fuller-bodied helles lager with a slightly louder presence of old world hops instead of a marzen and is available to festivals year-round!
