DocLock (4173), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA May 30, 2007 Bottle from Capone’s. Cloudy yellowish pour with 1-finger white head. Aroma of heavy tart citrus, some pale malt, hops, and some apple/pear notes. The taste is tart and citric, with some pear and malt notes at mid-palate, and a well rounded mouthfeel which made me crave this the more i sipped it. It stays tart throughout, but has a nice fruitiness and malt presence to countermand the citric tartness.

BeerGestapo (384), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 30, 2008 Brewed in Germany !!! Pours a sweet golden color with a dissipating white head. Tons and tons of carbonation in this classic style. Aroma of lemons, citrus, and very tart candy. Taste is zesty and sour with a wheaty malt mouthfeel. This brew was a wonderful suprise!!! And i would like to try more of the berliner weisse styles. :) travita (791), Lewisville, Texas, USA Oct 29, 2008 Smell is lemon, wheat, yeast, fruits, and some tartness. Look is cloudy with a light white head. Taste is a light lemony tartness with hints of wheat and other citrus. Dry and refreshing. joshwilfong (549), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 27, 2008 golden with quickly disappering head. slight spicy and definitely sour nose. thick mouthfeel. flavor is greatly unique with an initial fruity ester flavor from the yeast with a very refreshing tartness from the lactobacillus. a beer that was perfectly fermented, benefitting from proper yeast manipulation to balance the lactic acid. a great brew, from an under-appreciated style. afireinside96 (522), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 19, 2008 .5L bottle. I don’t have a "bowl" style glass so I used a Trappist glass which seems like a similar shape. Lightly hazed green-gold liquid topped by a half inch of foam that settles down to a thin capping. Smells of lemon, wheat, tart like a good saison. Crisp dry wheaty flavor, some lemon, a touch of sourness. Intense carbonation nips at the tongue and throat quickly scrubbing away any flavors that were just there. Definitely the best Berliner Weisse that I have had so far.
