Berliner Kindl Weisse

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

Pours a flat yellow color. Taste is very light and has wheat and citrus characteristics. And easy drink but nothing exciting.

Whitish yellow very hazy body with a near perfect creamy lasting white head; Quite complex but very strange not really pleasant nose, lots of popped popcorn, lots of un-perfumed washing-up liquid and lots of grain husk, 3 off flavors? or is it actually supposed to be like this, it does somehow seem composed and balanced, strange?; Big soft carbonation on a thin very 1-dimensional fruity citric acidy body; Medium long citric finish, thin, lots of plain grain aromas. I want LOTS of sirup in my next Berliner Weisse (if there will ever be a next)

Bottle - Tasting at Plan B. Unclear yellow - white head. Wheat, citrus zest, citrus, lemon, high sourness, bread, cactus, light freshness, acid. Strange. High carbonation.

Hazy yellow of color with a white head. An aroma of wheat, bread and sour notes. A flavor which is sour and fresh. Pretty light in taste but still enjoyable.

Beer pours golden color with a disapating egg white head. Aroma is sourish, but not massively so. Flavor is light with significant sourness like a sweet tart without the sweet. I like the fact that the ABV is so low. I get really tired of treking to the fridge to find that I only have 8% and up beverages. This is a nice refreshing beverage that I would be happy to drink again, especially on a warm day in Texas.

From a stubby 330 ml. hand grenade shaped bottle, freshness date on the back label, sampled in a widemouth tumbler glass. Poured a slightly hazy orangey golden with a tight foamy bright white head that quickly dissipates into a thin bubbly, sudsy lacing, a good start. I love the nose on this, tart sour apples and lemons, spiced wheat malts, light touches of earthy mustiness. Active carbonation leads to a crisp, firm light bodied mouthfeel, tastes of sour, tart apples with lemons squeezed over them, a lactic acidity in the palate, softly spicy, fruity wheat malts, light touches of pepper, baking spices and juicy green melons, dry and sweetly tart in the finish. I am really enjoying the taste of this, a lip smacker. This is an excellent summer quaffer, perfect for the hazy heat of early August.

Pours a deep yellow color with thin white head. Aroma is of tart apple and some cut vegetation along with some sourness. Taste is very sour with some mild fruitiness of a tart apple. My first for the style. Didn’t much care for this one but I’d try another of the style if found in a single. $14.99 for a sixer of 2.5%abv is crazy!.

Bottle. Sour, hoppy, vinegar. Pale yellow body and a big white frothy head. Sour flavor. Light to medium body, very dry and sour texture, soft carbonation.
