Commercial Description:
Huguenots may have originated the style as they traveled through France to Flanders, having first mentioned it in the 1600s. During their time, there were said to be seven hundred weissbier breweries in Berlin. Later, in 1809, Napoleon and his troops identified Berliner Weisse as the Champagne of the North. He requested the beer be served w/syrup to cut its extreme level of acidity. Bayrischer Bahnhof’s interpretation is a slightly softer, more mellow version of the “Berliner Weisse” style with a beautiful balance of tartness, fruitness, and sweetness.

(Draught) Poured with colour of grapefruit juice and cloudy and with no head. Aroma was sour and fruity. Very light bodied and dry palate with medium carbonation. Tasted of sourness, sour milk, grain and fruitiness. Sour aftertaste.

Bottle from Vendome NoHo. They have a few of these, and from the taste they are old. Not bad, just old. Nose of oxidized German grains, wheat, candi sugar. Color is a bright yellow with decent fluffy white head. Flavor is woefully round and un-sharp: caramel, lemon zest, mild tart all mixed in a Hefe type flavor.

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a very large sized head of foamy fine to medium sized white colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a hazy softly carbonated yellow-white colored body and a thick foamy lacing. The aroma was musty and soapy. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of off tasting acidic sour and tart. A horrible one that I would not buy again.

Nose has hints of lemon, sweet wheat malt, some cidery notes, and grass. Pours hazy light yellow with a thin head. The flavor starts out tart and quenching. Very lemony. This is followed by wheaties and some light sweet notes. Very light, moderately flavorful, bright carbonation.

Bottled. Poured a pale hazy yellow. Aroma and taste were very tart and citrusy but not too harsh. Good.

Bottled - light, cloudy color when poured. Thin head, but lots of carbonation. Tasted sweet & sour...mostly citrus-y sour. I liked this one, it would go well with an outdoor picnic in the summer.

Funky, tart aroma, lemony. The appearance is very pale yellow, hazy, thick white head, which subsides relatively quickly. There is sentiment in the glass, not sure if that’s normal or not. The flavor is lemony, tart, acidic. The finish is sour lemon, tart and dry. Thin/medium mouthfeel, more toward medium. Decent for what it is, this being an unusual style. Definitely drinkable (good thing it’s 3% ABV). Definitely works on a sultry eveing like this one.

Bottle shared by Hophead22..Diluted lemonade with a thin white head.. Smell is lightly sweet with some green apples.. Flavor was tart upfront with some citrus but finished kinda earthy.. Thin with lively carbonation.. Easy to drink.
