The new wheat dimension
Go on a discovery: “Meine Hopfenweisse” – an incomparable taste experience that exceeds all expectations …. flowery hoppy, full-bodied with malty aromes – this is how far wheat beer can go. A special Schneider treat! Fireworks for your senses. Shiny golden wheat doppelbock.
This brew is the result of the long friendship of Brooklyn brewmaster Garrett Oliver and Schneider brewmaster Hans-Peter Drexler. Garrett had always admired the delicate balance of flavors in Schneider Weisse, while Hans-Peter had long enjoyed the effusive hop character of Brooklyn East India Pale Ale and BLAST! Garrett’s concept for the collaboration was that each brewmaster would brew essentially the same pale, hoppy weissbock in the other’s brewery, but with different hopping to reflect the local hop flavor.
