Pours hazy golden, white head.
Aroma has a nice champagne yeast nose, light tartness, some grain; wheat and fruits.
Flavor surprised me. I think the whole Unplugged serie has this unique cachet of adding extra tartness to the beer with hints of barrel.
Citrus palate, yeasty, champagne like yeast, with an enjoyable bitter sweetness, fruity notes; peach.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 24, 2009 Bottle. Pour is rich cloudy golden color with small white head. Aroma is lemon, faint wheat, and a light funk/ sour aroma. Flavor is sour up front with a nice lemon lick. It’s very refreshing and clean. There are some other more subtle flavors in there, but I really cannot identify most of them...possibly dandelions, maybe a touch of floral hops, and white wine. It is more complex than I thought it would but the dominant flavors are simple and pure. It’s a really nice beer. radiomgb (1977), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 22, 2009 Clear golden, lingering small white head, light lacing.
Aroma is quite wheaty, acidic, apple juice, citrus.
Flavour is lightly tart, small acidic, wheaty, light sweetness at times, apple juice.
Lightly sour mouthfeel, light body, moderate carbonation.
Finishes long, dry, light acidic.
Quite wheaty and nowhere near as assertive as other samples. Dieu du Ciel and some German ones are in a different class. That said, I still quite enjoyed this.
355ml bottle obtained in a trade with TheCheeseMan, thanks Dan.
Opened on March 1, 2009.
No date.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 16, 2009 Bottle from Hophead22. Hazy light yellow and fizzy with 1/2 white head. Aroma and taste of wine, bubblegum, vinegar, apple cider, tart. Thick bubbly lively carbonation. dmac (1449), Toms River, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 11, 2009 12 bottle via trade. Aroma is nice and tart with plenty of lemon and apricott. Bubbly medium body that actually finishes a little on the thick and creamy side. Flavor is tart and fruity with some grainy wheat and an odd aftertaste that kicks in a few seconds after the final swallow. Very solid despite the odd aftertaste. MoDog (919), Griffith, Indiana, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 6, 2009 12oz bottle served in a shaker. Hazy light golden pour with a thin head of off-white foam that quickly settled into a lasting film. Minimal lacing. The aroma included wheat, bready yeast, sweet citrus, and some lemony sourness. The flavor had an upfront, crisp tartness. Lemon zest, crackery pale malt, and wheat. Not overly sour, but very quenching and refreshing. Light-bodied with moderate carbonation. Light and simple. A good drink for a hot day. RSRIZZO (1365), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 24, 2009 From a 12oz. bottle in a Trappist glass at 45°. Color is a hazy yellow with light carbonation and a thin head. Aroma is a sweet yeasty scent. Taste is sweet and tart. Starting with a light body it goes down easy with a sour twang on the end. Finish has a mild fruit sweetness then a big sour tart feel jumps in. After taste is dry as the tart hangs on. This is a great brew, can’t think of anything like it but I like it. markwise (1179), 15 Minutes from Kuhnhenn in, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 12, 2009 Thanks to noncaloric for this awesome bonus beer. For a berliner weiss, this one is pretty darn good. Pours hazy yellow with a bone white head. Nose is prickly grapefruit, vinegar, and typical berliner weiss tartness. Mild flavor with palate-cleansing vinegary citrus. Lingers with same prickly extremely tart citrus, like most berliners. Excellent for the style and a good, sessionable starter beer. In a world of limited tasty, low-alcohol beers this one is a definite winner.
