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.

courtesy of DerDoppelbock - hazy golden colour with a little persistent white foam; aroma of hay, citrus and honey; fresh and lively palate; fizzy and light to medium-bodied; lingering acidity before a long fruity and herbal finish - refreshing and very pleasant

11.2oz bottle. Very cloudy pale yellow pour. Not much head. Light toasty aroma and light lemon. Very nice but not enough tartness.

Soft effervescence. Lemony aroma. Slightly yeasty. Sour but not extreme. Soft body. Very drinkable. Perfectly suited for rehydration.

This little bastard is tart. Extremely sweet. Almost like liquidfied pixie sticks. At least make it a little more potent.

Bottle - Poured pale yellow with a creamy white head. Smells sour and acidic with some citrus, honey, and white grapes. Has a dry apple taste with white grapes and nearly no aftertaste. Seriously, it just disappears into a asprin/mineral water taste. It’s way weird, but kind of cool, too. It’s dry in the mouth, very refreshing, and surprisingly medium-bodied. This is only my second BW, but I would love having one of these every time I finish mowing the lawn -- if they weren’t $4.99 a piece. (!)

Pours very pale, slightly milky yellow with a small, quickly fading, fizzy, white head. Aroma is tart citrus, wheat, bready yeast, raspberries, green apple, sweet grain and some hard to pin down fruit notes. Flavor is wheat, straw, tart lemon, green apple, cereal grains, wheat, raw yeast. Finish is a mild tart citrus, light grain, some fruits and a hint of vinegar. Palate is pleasantly light with a nice soft but fervent effervescence. Good stuff, my first berliner weiss to the best of my recollection and I am pleasantly impressed.

Pours a very pale yellow color with a small white head. The aroma shows notes of mild citrus, wheat, and some funky yeast. The flavor is pretty mild with some citrus and crisp wheat comprising the flavors. A little tartness comes through on the back end. Medium to light bodied and not as tart as other berliner’s that I have had. Not bad, and certainly drinkable for the low abv.

11.2 ounce bottle from State Line Liquors. Pours a hazy pale straw yellow with a large head. Lots of carbonation. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of nuts, grain, apple and a very light tart finish. Taste is pale malts, green apple, grain and a mild tartness. Medium bodied. Decent and very drinkable.
