| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 10, 2007 Bottle @ Rudolf’s ’Sourfest’. Crisp yellow body with a small white head. Yeasty corn on the cob aroma. Grainy, very light sourness in the flavour. Average palate. Pretty dull - I never thought I would catch myself wanting something to be MORE sour! Perhaps my tongue had been deadened by the stiffer fare surrounding it. beerguy101 (3946), Newark, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 5, 2008 This Berliner Weisse pours a medium yellow gold color from a 50cl bottle. Small sized white foamy head. The aroma is tart lemons, yeast and some malts. A medium bodied Berliner Weise The malts are cereal and grain, some papaya and orange. Its tart, but not overpoweringly tart. Lively carbonation. A nice tart and refreshing summer beer. The lower alcohol content would make this a nice summer session beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly tart. thedm (3836), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 1.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 3/20 | Jun 27, 2008 Oh oh. Way off the curve on this one. This bottled brew from Indianapolis, IN poured a large sized head of fizzy foamy white colored mostly diminishing finely sized bubbles that left behind a carbonated slightly hazy yellow colored body. The aroma was of mild grass and soap with a hint of malt. The mouth feel was tingly and acidic from start to finish. The flavor contained notes of acidic malts. Mark for a re rate. I suspect poor handling here. Braudog (3773), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 27, 2007 500ml bottle: Quite fizzy on the pour, but then quickly fades to a silent stillness with just a bare head of tiny bubbles. Reflects the color of unfiltered pineapple juice, and the aroma darn near starts making me think this is a fruit punch. It’s not quite that sweet, though, pretty tart I suppose, but not nearly as puckering as I’d expected depending on all the smack talk about the style (this is the first Berliner I’ve had in the 5 yrs I’ve been on RB). Instead, it’s pleasantly sweet and lightly tart, and quite drinkable. Why would anyone put fruit syrup in this? (#2993, 6/27/2007) Rciesla (3750), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 3, 2007 This hard to get in Germany bottle was kindly provided by DerDoppelbock. Milky yellow, low white blanket head. Acidic fresh, light citric aroma. Citrus buttermilk flavor, restrained tart, a hint of anisseed. Light body as it befits the style, sparkly mouthfeel. Dry cleansing finish with a slightly citric aftertaste. Very pleasant drink. egajdzis (3631), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 6, 2007 Poured a cloudy golden color with a medium sized, tight, creamy, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of tart citrus, banana, clove, hay, sweat, and lemongrass. More lemongrass in the taste, with some banana, clove, buttercream, citrus, vanilla, toffee, and a lactic sourness. Sour finish as well. badgerben (3605), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 9, 2007 Nearly clear yellow color with a thick head. A tart and lemony aroma as well as some wheat. Slight tartness and dry malt up front, followed on by wheat, lemon and banana. Not overly tart or sour, but just enough to freshen it up a bit. Lovely.
