🌍 Germany · Hefeweizen · One of 183 Hefeweizens in hopIQ

Named after the Bavarian musician who developed the recipe with the brewery's brewmasters rather than putting his name on an existing beer, Tream has been on sale since July 2026, exclusively through a single retail chain and at the artist's concerts. The naturally cloudy wheat beer has 4.9 % alcohol and pours a deep golden to amber colour. Ripe banana and yeast lead the nose, followed by a clove-like spice and soft wheat bread; the palate is mild and rounded, with lively carbonation.

Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced ripe banana, a classic hallmark of Hefeweizen fermentation character. Yeast-driven aromas blend seamlessly with gentle clove-like spice and soft notes of wheat bread, creating a rounded, inviting bouquet. No aggressive hop character intrudes; instead, the profile remains fruit-forward and approachable.

Taste

The palate entry is mild and well-balanced, with banana and spice notes echoing the nose. Mid-palate reveals a soft, rounded mouthfeel with gentle wheat undertones and a subtle breadiness that anchors the beer without heaviness. Lively carbonation keeps the beer crisp and refreshing, preventing any flatness or cloying sweetness.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of Schneider Weisse Tream

Serve at 5–8°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.

Weizen glass
Recommended for this style

Tall and narrow at the base, flaring at the top — designed to hold the abundant foam of a wheat beer while showcasing its hazy golden body.

Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
