Commercial Description:
Available July 2008

"Some people paint, some sing, others write ... I brew." - Daniel Carey

A few times a year, we will cut Dan loose to brew whatever he chooses, uncensored, uncut, unplugged. Always handcrafted, the bottle you hold is brewed for the adventurous soul. This is a very limited edition and we make no promises to ever brew this style again.

Napoleon hailed this tart beer style "the Champagne of the North." A lively and elegant masterpiece this Berliner Weiss is a kaleidoscope of fresh flavor. Barrel fermentation, Pinot Grigio, Riesling grapes and Wisconsin White Wheat are bottle fermented with five proprietary yeast strains. A connoisseur's rare jewel both spirited and subtle, enjoy your sparkling toast under summer stars.

Thanks For Supporting The Arts.

At Vero, thanks to Cheeseman for sharing! Mainly clear, apple juice color. Big juicy apple and pear bouquet. Big carbonation. Apricot fuzz. Toe-tingling. Not too tart. Smooth, hardly lactic. Really well-rendered. Refreshingly tart, light, tasty, and good.

Pours a crisp lemon yellow with a thick layer of white head that dissipates to a thin layer. Aroma is cidery and tart. Flavor is pear, apple, definite tartness. Champagne-cider-like flavor. A dry white/champagne flavor comes across. Definitely not my style beer but it is well done.

Hot damn. Danny Carey is amazing at brewing beer. I look forward to the release of these unplugged beers more than i do my own birthday. Always different styles, made with unique ingredients in unique ways. I love it.

Aromas of white wine, light sweet wheat, light funk and tart citrus. Pours a hazy yellow gold with a nice head and big bubbles. Tart flavors of fruit, grape, green apples. Acidic and a little lactic. Dry mouth feel, lots of tartness. A touch of funk comes through in the finish. Bitey carbonation works nicely with the acidity. Light and complex. This would be a great out in the heat beer.
