Dec 4, 2007 Aroma is tart lemony wheat, just the aroma makes my jowls pucker,a wonderful dry citrus lemony wheat taste and tartness contols your palate. Tartness seems like its going to sourness,when suddenly magicly it smoothes out nicely ,by far the best Berliner Weiss I’ve ever had, an absolute perfect summer quencher that tastes great even in winter. I believe this is an extra from biggcb.

Dec 3, 2007 500 ml bottle. Pours a super hazy yellow with an average size fizzy bright white head. Aroma of wheat, fresh cut grass, and tart fruitiness. Light bodied that is highly quaffable with lively carbonation trough out. Flavor starts out very tart of spolied fruit then mellows to wheat notes that fades out nicely. Damn fine stuff.

Dec 2, 2007 Hazy lemon gold with a huge white head ... classic lemon meringue wheat beer appearance. Nose of citrus and slight funk. Taste almost lambic in its sourness, lightly funked as well. Easy to drink, very refreshing, and I can see where the habit of adding fruit syrup to a Berliner came from.

Dec 1, 2007 500. Thanks, HogFodder! Tasty stuff. Nice to see it’s available in town (for) now. Cloudy lemony amber with a towering, fluffy platinum blonde head that quickly falls away to a little ring of white foam. Minimal lacing. Dusty, lemony nose. Medium-thick and quite tingly body. Plenty of carb, enough that it’s surprising that hardly any really shows in the glass. Tart lemony acidulence on the mid-palate; this flavor profile could use a bit of help. There’s grass there, maybe a bit of hay, but not much else to keep the lemony sourness company. But at least the sourness does have that lemony overtone. Light, refreshing, and clingy tart finish. Good stuff.

Dec 1, 2007 Courtesy of Degarth. Pours a straw gold with bright white head. The aroma has some punch with fruitiness from apples, peaches and mango mixed with hay, grains and mild funk. The taste begins tart with lemon, mild burlap funk and grains. The experience just smooths out into the finish creating a refreshing sensation. Very nice summer brew.

Dec 1, 2007 bottle....translucent light golden brown pour with a thin white head.....very fruity nose with a lot of citrus notes. a little bit of tartness.....a very lively and bubbly mouthfeel which then gives way to the citrus tart and then finishes off pretty dry. some acidity there as well....a very refreshing berliner.

Nov 29, 2007 The beer departs the 500ml bottle a hazy light gold, the head monstrous in size, a bright creamy white, and it fades slowly, leaving the lace a thick and tight sheet upon the glass. Nose has a sweet and sour tone, fresh, crisp, spicy and mouth watering to say the least. Start is sweet with grain, tart at the back with the top light to medium in feel. Finish has a modest acidity, the sweet and sour taste continues to the end, quite dry and a good representative to the style.

Nov 28, 2007 Bottle courtesy of Degarth. Not sure how this one eluded me for so long, but here we have it. Orange juice looking body, just a hint of a head, mainly foamy bubbles atop the liquid. Nose is pretty straightforward, some yeast, but mostly lemons, oranges and other citrus. Very tart on the nose, really awakens the senses. Flavor carries over all of that, very refreshing and palate cleansing. Light bodied, never watery, lively carbonation and an excellent mouthfeel. Finish is lengthy, tart and very crisp. November in Florida can still be pretty hot, and this was consumed on such a night, so it was very nice. Thank you Dr. Fritz Briem, whoever you are.
