12/10/2008: New Glarus Unplugged Berliner Weiss has a hazy plae yellow appearance. The beer contains large champagne-like bubbles and is topped with a smallish white foamy head that creates good lacing marks. The wheaty aroma is slightly sour with some tartness and cooked green apple. I really like the great sour/tartness in the flavor. The beer is acidic with some slightly sweet maltiness in the background as well as some slight creamy yeastiness. The beer also has a medium-light body and feels effervescent in the mought. Overall the flavors are spot on for what I want in a Berliner Weiss. This beer is very good and meets my expectations.
12 fl. oz. bottle from buckybeer. Thanks Mark! Rating #248 for this beer.

Jul 19, 2009 Shakeyfest 09. Kinda watery but in a very pleasant way. A good amount of sourness to make it tasty, yet drinkable. Nice graininess and hay.

Jul 18, 2009 A lot of citrus -- acidic and sour -- in aroma. A very tart and crisp flavor with a lot of sour fruit -- also some malt which makes for an interesting mixture of sweet and sour. The addition of brettanomyces really gives this beer a very complex flavor, which is not overbearing. A very interesting brew. Very good.

Jul 14, 2009 Hazy, golden color with little to no head. Very crisp, tart, sour flavor. Some lemon, some sour apple, some hints of dry white wine. Pretty impressive.

Jul 12, 2009 Fantastic lemon sour flavor, along with some other citrus, light vinegar, and a tart finish. Light body that is nicely carbonated. Great!

Jul 9, 2009 Pours a hazy orange yellow color with a thin white head and a fair bit of carbonation. Aroma is a little vinegar, a little white wine, some citrus like something you’d really like to use to cook fish. Flavor is almost perfectly tart, like a big glass of musty lemonade, or a really nice dry cider. This is a damn fine beer.

Jul 8, 2009 Updated: Jul 21, 200907/08/09 Pours pale gold with a 1 finger creamy white head that has great retention. Aroma is vinegar, crap apple, nettles, musty wood, lemon and some grainy notes. Flavor is tart green apple, fresh oak, herbal notes, a hint of grain, sour grapes, white (not ripe) mullberries and lemon. Finish is walnut skin and spicy/peppery yeast with a dusty grain note at the very end. Palate is thin, dry, crisp and has a champagne like carbonation. Really good brew, not as good as the other Unplugged brews I have had, but damn fine. I have a couple of bottles left that I will have to save for a while to re-rate. Re-rate- 07/21/09: Kicked the score up 0.2, after drinking another bottle I decided the flavor and overall impression deserved a little more love.
