Bottle. Light amber with one finger head. Nicely tart with lots of lemon. Very refreshing brew, but perhaps a bit one dimensional.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Appearance is golden light supporting a thin crisp head that dissipates quickly leaving no lace. Smell is light on the nose with malt, wheat and lemon citrus. Taste has the malt, wheat and a sour lemon that chases to the end. Mouthfeel is light with good carbonation. certainly wakes the mouth up with that punch of tart.

Utah state liquor store bottle. Yep I bought it because it was a Berliner Weisse and not because of its ranking. A little grainy and thin for me. A little tartness but that is overpowered by some dustiness. Meh.

Bottle. Thanks to adnielsen for the bottle. Pours a golden orange color with a white head. Zesty, lemon, honey, citrus aromas. Light, lemon, tart flavors. Nice, drinkable berliner weisse.

22oz bottle in a snifter. Pours golden with a lacy, white head. Aroma of tartness, some caramel and pale malts, and some floral hops. Flavor about the same, with some light fruits too. Very carbonated. A decent beer of the style but not my favorite.

Bomber from Sam’s, Durham. A case study in low expectations. Having read some of my buds’ ratings, I was prepared to train-wreck. Not the most elegant vehicle, sure, but passable, at least more so than expected. Pour is fairly standard, cloudy gold with moderate carbonation. Nose a touch acrid and heavily citrusy. Mouthfeel a bit watery, not so puckering. Lemon drop and mildest funk to taste. Slightly dingy dishwater occasionally pokes its head out from the easy-drinking citrus, but thankfully not too prominently.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bomber marked down cheap. Like three bucks. Clear golden pour with a big pillowy white head. Nice cap of foam. Aroma was lemony with notes of honey and earthy malt. Slightly sweet. Flavors were lightly tart, mild lemon peel, touch of dusty cardboard. Nice carbonation, lively mouthfeel with a light bittersweet finish. Why the low ratings? I thought this was very refreshing and nice. I really like this style.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
22oz bottle $4.49. Bright yellow with a couple bubbles. Smell is a mix of cardboard and wheat. Flavor is the most subtle tarness, wheat, hint of lacto? Surely not. Extremely easy to drink but as far as the style this is disappointing overall. Oh well, at least it was cheap.
