Berliner Kindl Weisse Mit Schuß Waldmeister

Brewed by Berliner Kindl Brauerei (Oetker Group)
Style: Berliner Weisse
Berlin, Germany

Once again, people don’t know what’s going on...but then it seems all these people had this beer premixed in a bottle, whereas where I buy it you get a free bottle of your choice with a sixer. This guy is even better than with the raspberry. And the only real downside again is the severe lack of alcohol.

Draught. Green. Green with a thick greenish head. Surprisingly good taste of cinnamon and cherries with a sour finish. Apple pie. Cherry pie. Apple and cherry pie.

Pours an unclear green with a fluffy head. Aroma is probably of some strange herb, but is otherwise unremarkable. Not as shrieking sweet as the Himbeer Weisse, and quite drinkable cold.

Acid green colour. Nice foamy, green head. Woodruf aroma, with some yeasty notes. Sweet, woodruffy taste. Sour, yeasty notes. I like it.

Strange poison green color, with rocky green head. Quite artificial taste and aroma. Only light waldmeister notes. Sour and sweet. Refreshing and a nice german “beeropop”, but better if mixed by myself (I think).

it seems that most of you are missing the point...as usual. this is a summer beer, meant to be (or so i’ve read) a light, sweet, refreshing drink. while i have no idea exactly what woodruff is, i thoroughly enjoy adding the waldmeister to this beer. tinting the beer a lovely green and adding a sweetness to slightly counter the tart berliner flavor, but altering the flavor in a way i can’t quite put my finger on. overall, this is a brew to enjoy without taking too seriously, hell, it’s friggin’ froggy-green! and fun. a little more alcohol and maybe some mixing instructions in english (or whatever language for the importing country) would be nice, however.

Bottle. Pours a surprising hazy neon-green. A little light green head. Aroma has pistacios, marzipan and flowers. A touch thin mouthfeel. Generally sweet, but with an underlining sourness. Reminds me of the Danish icecream "Champagnebrus"

Bottle- woodruff aroma foremost but sourness of the weisse apparent. Cloudy neon green color. Sweet woodruff taste (nearest thing to compare it to in the states is possibly pistachio ice cream) but not nearly as sweet as the mixed ones you get in Berlin as the sourness of the weisse beer is still apparent. If you can find this in the states, it’s a fair approximation but if you’re in Berlin, have them mix you one instead. If you hate sweet beers, do not even try a Weisse with syrup.
