Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Hirsch Zwuckl if you want a slightly more substantial, malt-forward pour;
Weiherer Keller if you want something leaner and crisper.
Both are proper kellerbiers—unpasteurized, unfiltered, alive—but the Zwuckl carries a bit more body and sweetness that sits heavier in your mouth. The IBUs are identical, so bitterness isn't the differentiator; it's texture and how the malt reads. Pick based on whether you're in a mood to settle in or keep moving.

Tasting notes
Hirsch Zwuckl
Hirsch Zwuckl hits with a soft, almost pillowy mouthfeel—there's actual weight here for a 5.2% kellerbier. The malt is forward, slightly sweet, with a gentle hay-and-bread-crust thing happening that feels less aggressive than most. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, not aggressive. It's the kind of beer that tastes like it was made yesterday in a basement and probably was.
Weiherer Keller
Weiherer Keller is tighter in the frame—crisper, more delicate. It drinks drier despite the same ABV, and the malt reads more as mineral and grain than sweet. There's a subtle metallic edge that keeps it honest, and the carbonation feels slightly sharper. It's the more 'thirst-quenching' of the two, less about contemplation and more about the next sip.
