My first Berliner Weisse; bottle at the Stone World Bistro. Not as bracingly sour as I was led to believe, probably just this example. Pours with a largish, rocky, white head that goes in a relativly short amount of time. Clear yellow untill you get the yeast at the end of the bottle. Aroma is sour and tart with a bit of honey. Taste is sour with hay and a bit of wierd honey notes in the finish. Water like mouthfeel with a large amount of carbonation.

Jun 22, 2008 Bottle courtesy tpd975. Pours a hazy pale golden with a large white head that fades leaving some spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus, wheat, light acidity, and yeast. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium creamy mouthfeel with a slightly tart crisp finish. Very good.

Jun 11, 2008 Pours pale yellow into a trappist glass. Bright white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Sharp yeast from front to back but rather light and watery.

Jun 6, 2008 11.2oz bottle. Poured a medium and hazy/cloudy yellow color with a larger sized white head. Aromas of yeast, bready, dried out lemon peels, and wet/musty wheat (almost like a pile of horse manure). Tastes of wheat and lemons. Verly light tart finished. Description was spot on with ’...more mellow version of teh Berliner Weisse style...;.

May 23, 2008 Draft at gaslight. This light gold beer with a thin white head is terrible without the getrankesirup that was added by the bartender after telling me about adding this raspberry syrup to the beer it became tolerable but obviously sweet raspberry as one would imagine. The soultion is more like a 3.2 the base beer is more like...
