Schneider Weisse Kristall was created by Georg V. Schneider in the 1980’s. This elegant and sparkling wheat beer is not only a great refreshment but can also serve as the perfect alternative to sparkling wine and prosecco when served with a shot of elderberry syrup.
Until 1872, only the German monarchy were allowed to brew weiss bier and the rest of the nation's breweries has to stick to lagers. That changed when interest in the style dipped and sales declined. A disinterested King Ludwig sold the rights to brew it to Georg I Schneider
The taste is ok, so the watery bit is more that it just seems less tasty than other Schneiders. It's ok though, I'd rather drink this than 95% of the pale beers you see in the shops.

That's what you'd like from a wheat beer. Smooth and a bit hoppy
