Commercial Description:
Huguenots may have originated the style as they traveled through France to Flanders, having first mentioned it in the 1600s. During their time, there were said to be seven hundred weissbier breweries in Berlin. Later, in 1809, Napoleon and his troops identified Berliner Weisse as the Champagne of the North. He requested the beer be served w/syrup to cut its extreme level of acidity. Bayrischer Bahnhof’s interpretation is a slightly softer, more mellow version of the “Berliner Weisse” style with a beautiful balance of tartness, fruitness, and sweetness.

bottle, pours nearly white pale yellow with medium to large white head. Big yeasties made it into the glass. Aroma is a sweet funky scent with some hallertau hops playing in the background with a touch of rotten fruit. Flavor is much better than the initial aroma. Sharp and tart up front with a nice lemony middle melting anway to reveal a long grassy dry finish. Very tasty despite the initial aroma.

Very whitish yellow body with a thin white head that settles to a ring quickly. Musty, yeasty spicy wheat funk. Taste is light citrus and sweet funkiness, lemons.

Bottle. Pours a light straw body with a lot of carb, bubbles shooting up the sides of the glass for at least five minutes, never forming much head. Aroma of lightly tart, mandarin oranges, wheat. A nice tartness in the flavor, a hint of sweetness, fruity mellow orange aftertaste. Dry, bubbly, quite thirst quenching.

Bottle from Der Doppelbock, thanks! Apple and lemon in the aroma. Moderately sour flavor with apple and lemon. Hint of traubenzucker. Very refreshing and light. Delicous beer!
