Bittering hops Eureka, Saphir | Aroma hops Saphir

Fresh from the tank to the table. Our Zwickelbier captures exactly what fresh beer is all about: mild, smooth, and wonderfully easy-drinking, with a subtle yeast character and a refreshing finish. Traditionally popular in Franconia, this unfiltered lager brings the brewery experience straight to your glass. But what does Zwickel actually mean? The term refers to the sampling tap on a beer tank, used by the brewmaster to taste the beer during fermentation and before it is served. It is the freshest beer a brewery has to offer. With our Zwickelbier, you can enjoy beer just as the brewer does: unfiltered, naturally fresh, and full of character.

Beer Style Helles Export Lager | Color 15 EBC
Bitterness 22 IBU | Original Extract 12.3°P
Alcohol 5.2% ABV | Malts Pilsner, Munich, Dark Caramel
Bittering hops Eureka | Aroma hops Saphir

“Does Bavaria really need another Helles?” We asked ourselves the same question. That’s why you won’t find a traditional Helles at Schwabinger Tor Bräu. Instead, we brew Schwabinger Gold, a beer inspired by the classic Export style and crafted with a little more character and depth. Malty and easy-drinking, yet balanced by the distinctive aroma of Saphir hops, which lend delicate floral and citrus notes. A long maturation period of eight to ten weeks ensures exceptional smoothness and drinkability, just as beers were traditionally brewed in the past.

Schwabinger Gold is available to take away in 0.3 L and 0.5 L bottles at Bicicletta Café, open daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Beer Style Pale Wheat Beer | Color 10 EBC
Bitterness 15 IBU | Original Extract 12.5°P
Alcohol 5.3% ABV | Malts Wheat, Pilsner
Bittering Hops Eureka | Aroma Hops Hallertau Blanc, Saphir

Our Blau-Weisse is a classic wheat beer with a modern twist. Brewed as pale as possible and generously hopped with Hallertau Blanc and Saphir shortly before the whirlpool, it is then fermented with our special wheat beer yeast, creating a truly distinctive brew. Crisp and refreshing, with a creamy mouthfeel and a smooth, gentle bitterness, it combines vibrant notes of gooseberry and citrus with the unmistakable hint of banana that every great wheat beer should have. We are delighted with the result and look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Fun fact: The name Blau-Weisse ("Blue & White") is a tribute to our beloved home state of Bavaria and the hops used in the beer. Saphir stands for blue, Blanc for white. And just like that, the Blau-Weisse was born.

Schwabinger Blau-Weisse is available to take away in 0.5 L bottles at Bicicletta Café, open daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

“Schwabing hat Bock” — in German, Bock is both a strong beer style and part of the expression “Bock haben”, meaning “to be up for something.” And yes, Schwabing is definitely up for a Bock.

Our Helles Bock kicks off the summer with a floral hop bouquet from Akoya and Tango. Bold and malty, but never too heavy. Refreshing yet full-bodied — just the way we like our Bock.

Strong beer. Strong character. Schwabing hat Bock.
