Oct 28, 2009 500 mL bottle. Pours golden with a large white, fizzy head that dissolves rapidly like a soft drink. Aroma is sour, with lemon, apple, sugar, and wheat. Flavor is light at first but builds up nicely, with a tart sourness, green and red apple, lemon, and some sweetness and wheaty biscuit approach toward the finish. Lots of carbonation. Relaxing and easy to enjoy.

Oct 27, 2009 I drank this from the bottle into a chalice.
The beer pours a bright light colored cloudy gold. It almost looks like its neon. The head is white and rises about 1 finger but fades quickly on pour retention. The lacing is spotty and watery.
The aroma is sharp to start with a nice tartness. It smells just like a granny smith apple. I’ve even peeled one to confirm this, and its confirmed! There is hint of vinegar and wheat.
The taste is great, nice light vinegar taste that is sharp and has a great aftertaste that makes it no doubt what type of beer this is.
The beer is a little watery, but highly drinkable.

Oct 21, 2009 500 ml bottle from Green’s Beverages in Atlanta, sampled 4/25/08. Hazy golden yellow colour with a mostly lasting thick creamy off-white head. Lactic, citric, lemon, doughy, and light grapefruit aroma. Tart lemon and grapefruit flavours with a dry, acidic, and lightly bitter finish. Light bodied, dry, and super refreshing mouthfeel. Sour, but balanced, great hot weather refresher.

Oct 11, 2009 Draft at Hamiltons. Pours a luminescent, almost glow-in-the-dark, cloudy neon yellow hue with quickly dissipating head and no lacing. Nose is lactic sourness with a hint of barnyard funk, light fruits, wheat. Flavor is lemon-orange zest amplified by the effervescence, light sourness and funk midway with a backbone of light wheatiness, finishes spritzy sweet. Light-body, thin texture, high level of carbonation. Tastes like a slightly sour mimosa, wheat and citrus dominate while lactic sour takes a back seat, a nice easy drinking bubbly drink that falls a bit short for the style.

Oct 11, 2009 Draft at hamiltons: Pours a processed grapefuit juice color starting out with a nice bright white head but settling very thin and really only a ring around the glass. Nose exhibits nice, lemony lactic twang. Flavors are wheaty with a bit of sourness, but really it tastes a lot more like a hefe than a berliner...there isn’t much if any graininess common with berliners...and the lemony twang is more wheaty and a product of a hefe-type yeast than any lactic funk. Its tasty of course, but within what I would call style guidelines of what I refer to as a berliner weisse, I don’t think so...
