Ungstrup (11031), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 14, 2005 A hazy pink beer with a small disappearing pink head. The aroma contains notes of wood, raspberries, and pink grapefruit. The flavor has a nice sourness with notes of wood and raspberries. They could learn something in Berlin from this brew! argo0 (6145), Washington DC, USA Jul 13, 2005 (RBSG05) Cloudy red body with no head. Aroma is sweet, raspberry, raspberry, raspberry, some tart/sourness. Taste is sweet, tart, raspberry, light lemon. For some reason this does not wholly work for me -- first time I have had a Berliner Weisse accompanied by fruit. Rastacouere (5258), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jun 28, 2004 Totally red, almost pinkish. No head, but what a red.. Intense raspberry heart nose, slightly creamy, lactic, leafy and light like a berliner weisse ought to be. Extremely refreshing on the tongue of course. Lactic, malic, citric, astringent. Good focus on the raspberry flavor, sour, but not close to the point of being agressive. Mostly thin body of course, decent carbonation despite the absence of head. Excellent summer beer. CaptainCougar (4624), Rockville, Maryland, USA Jul 11, 2005 Pours a transparent bright ruby red with a thick, pinkish head than has good, thin lacing. Very rich, fruity, raspberry aroma has a nice balance between sweet and tart. Starts with a hint of candy-like sweetness, turning more dry, tart and sour with lots of raspberry fruitiness with a dry, puckering finish. Could use a little more sweetness, but a good, refreshing beer nonetheless. BückDich (4525), Boise, Idaho, USA Aug 24, 2005 Draught at the brewpub Bright ruby red, light lacing and light head. The nose is lightly tart, some fruit and light malt. The flavor is nicely tarty as well, some sweetness. Good and satisfying. This rating really reminds me that I’m no poet.
