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.

Bottled. An unclear light golden beer with a huge white head. The aroma has notes of malt and citrus as well as lighter notes of wheat. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and citrus, leading to a dry, bitter, and lightly citrusy finish. Thanks KimJohansen for sharing.

Sampled picnic-style in the car (hey, it’s 3%) on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Hazy pale. Tart, lemomy-cidery nose. Tart but smooth on the palate with lemony accents and a clean maltiness. Quick, simple take on the style.
