HOPIQ TAKE
Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier if you want the textbook German wheat beer experience, Toit Hefeweizen if you want something with more local character and a slightly earthier edge. Both sit at 5% ABV with minimal bitterness, so you're not choosing intensity—you're choosing between Munich tradition and Indian brewpub interpretation. The Franziskaner will feel familiar if you've had hefeweizens before; the Toit will surprise you with how it leans into its own terroir.
