Benediktiner Hell

Benediktiner Hell is a premium German lager brewed following traditional Benedictine principles. The brand finds its spiritual home at the Ettal Abbey (Kloster Ettal) in Bavaria, which has a brewing history dating back over 400 years. While the heritage is deeply rooted in monastic tradition, the production of this specific 'Hell' (light lager) typically takes place in Lich, Hesse, under a joint venture agreement.

The brand is the result of a collaboration between the Ettal Abbey and the Bitburger Braugruppe. This partnership allows the monks to share their original recipes and quality standards with a broader market while utilizing the modern production and distribution capabilities of a major German brewery group. The beer is characterized by its golden color, mild hop profile, and balanced malt sweetness, adhering strictly to the Reinheitsgebot (German Purity Law).
