Commercial Description:
This beer is an adaptation of a wheat beer brewed in Berlin known as a Berliner weiss. This is a cloudy blond coloured beer lightly tinted by the fruits which are steeped in it: either strawberry, raspberry or blueberry depending on the time of year. It is a highly acidic beer due to the lactic fermentation which takes place. Its aromas are acid, tart, and fruity.A light tasting beer, its acidity is quickly felt on each side of the tongue before leaving all the room for the wonderful fruity taste.

(RBSG05) Cloudy red body with no head. Aroma is sweet, raspberry, raspberry, raspberry, some tart/sourness. Taste is sweet, tart, raspberry, light lemon. For some reason this does not wholly work for me -- first time I have had a Berliner Weisse accompanied by fruit.

No notes, re-rate. Wow. This was just about perfect. Bumping the overall up to 4.0. Deliciously refreshing.

RBSG 2005. Ruby Kool-Aid hue with a small pink head that resists resuscitation. Very tart fruity raspberry aroma, mild glimpses of acidity. Very tart, moderately acidic flavour is restraint enough to all the fruit to shine through, yet leaves the mouth watering. A refreshing change of pace, with vinous notes in the finish. Palate is light but very appropriate for this beer. (3+) One of the more memorable beers of the weekend, and an experience I’d rate higher than my numbers might suggest. God I love DDC! 7/3/8/3/17 3.8

RBSG 2005: poured a nice looking light ruby red with a medium pink head. Framboise aroma. Tart flavor dominated by raspberries. Light hairspray also. Sour finish but quite nice. I had another glass after all was said and done.

(Draught) Sampled at RBSG 2005 in Montreal. Thin, pink, dissipating head with a ruby-red body. Nose of raspberry jam. The flavour however is far more tart. Sour and mildly fizzzy Beliner Weiss.

2005 RBSG Montreal Saturday. Pale red colour with a frothy pink hued white head. Tart raspberry, lactic, lightly dusty and yeasty aroma. Tart raspberry, dry and wheaty flavours, then finishing somewhat milky and dry. Very light and thin, but dry, incredibly refreshing, quenching, and juicy. I want some more!

RBSG 2005... Poured a hazy reddish pink color with a small pink head that left light lacing on the glass Aroma of diactyl, raspberries, and yeast. Taste started sweet and then turned mouth-puckering tart raspbery, was vinous, and finished with wood. Super refreshing!
