That depends.

You could be talking about Spring beans, Enterprise Java Beans or some other variant.

The general answer is that beans are some type of generic object (or POJO perhaps) that hold information - almost think of them like their own data type. The distinction is that they typically don't have much in the way of behaviors eg, they only have: simple fields, getters, setters.
