Benediktiner Weissbräu
Benediktiner Weissbräu is the beer brand of Benediktiner Weissbräu GmbH in Ettal. The story starts in the cellar of the Benedictine abbey at Ettal Monastery, 877 metres up, where monks shaped a brewing tradition that is now 400 years old. Today the beers are brewed in Lich, Hesse, at the Licher Privatbrauerei Jhring-Melchior to the original Benedictine recipe: cloudy, dark and alcohol-free wheat beers, a Hell and a Festbier, guided by calm, care and respect.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
