Bayreuther Hell lager beer

Bayreuther Hell is a traditional German pale lager (Helles) produced by the Bayreuther Bierbrauerei in the Bavarian city of Bayreuth. The brand is deeply rooted in Franconian brewing heritage, adhering strictly to the Reinheitsgebot (German Purity Law).

Historically established in 1857, the brewery became part of a significant partnership during the 20th century. Today, it operates as a distinct brand under the ownership of Brauerei Gebr. Maisel, another iconic family-owned brewery also based in Bayreuth. This arrangement allows Bayreuther Hell to maintain its local identity and traditional recipes while benefiting from the logistical and distribution strengths of the larger Maisel group. The product is exclusively brewed and bottled at the source in Bayreuth, Germany.
