    They don't even make a lager as far as I know. They produce almost entirely wheat beers. I meant the WeiÃYbier.
    Wiki says they produce the following of that maybe one is a lager:

    WeiÃYbier - a golden cloudy beer (alc 5.3%, white/cream label, pictured)
    Dunkel- a dark brown type (alc 5.6%, black label)
    Kristallklar (crystal clear) - a filtered WeiÃYbier (alc 5.3%, silver label)
    Pikantus (picaanthus) - a dark weizenbock beer (alc 7.3%)
    Leicht (light) - a light beer (alc 2.9%)
    SchneeweiÃYe (snow-white) - a seasonal beer brewed from November to February (alc 5.6%)
    Erdinger Champ - a wheat beer that can be drunk straight from the bottle (alc 4.7%)
    Alkoholfrei (alcohol free) - an alcohol free version (alc 0.4%, blue label)
    Festbier (festive beer) - a seasonal brew for Erding's Herbstfestes (autumn festival, also known as Volksfest)

    No, in a bar it should be 1L :)
    In a bottle 500ml.

    Why would you add fruit? Wheat beer is far heavier than the piss beer you drink and is not sour. That is lambics and berliner weisse.

    You don't even know what you are talking about for the style. Before you try to discredit something, actually learn about it, or drink it or maybe even brew it.

    I just buy the Paulaner October Fest cans that come with the Liter glasses.

    I would never serve that kind of beer at my house.

    Spoken like someone who does not like beer. Hefe is not sour, that would be a beer infected with brett like a berliner Weisse or a Lambic.

    Generally they don't just leave it in, they add more at bottling.

    If you do not like yeast you do not like beer.

    I would say Andech's, but I think they advertise. They did expand the brewery about a decade ago, so what are you thinking of?

    Either way if you get the chance go visit Andech's and get a dobblebock.

    False, as evidence I present Erdinger and Paulaner. The latter is the Hefe by which all Hefes are judged.

    Yeast makes beer moron. Hefe is probably the best beer on Earth.

    That would eliminate all wheat beers and a great many really good beers.

    Many breweries claim to comply, but really don't. I have even seen such claims on wheat beer bottles. Since Reinheitsgebot clearly only allows Water, Barley and Hops, they cannot comply. Yeast was added later as it was unknown at the time.

    It is still pilsner. Which is all watery crap compared to real beers.

    Find an Ale, or a bock, or anything that is not nearly clear.

    A proper beer is 500ml or 1L. A 330/335 is for children.

    I agree they are, and I even like their methods. Sadly most americans disagree with that.

    We are pretty culturally opposed to that sort of thing. Americans prefer decisions made not based on the result but based on "moral" grounds. This is why we don't offer free needles to junkies for instance. It would save us millions in ER costs and the like, but people think it immoral to aid the junkie in getting high, never mind that he will do it either way.

    Most people in the states do not drive that far. My daily commute is under 10 miles. I own two cars, one of them could easily be electric.

    I am sure my life is not unique and many american families would be fine with one electric car and one gas fueled vehicle.

    CNG has other problems. CNG cars exist but the range also sucks. LNG fixes the range issue, but handling LNG is not something the average moron should really be doing.
