kmweaver (2125), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA Aug 4, 2008 Draft @ Nodding Head. Pours a clear golden color; thin white head with patchy lacing. Lots of tart citrus and pleasant wheatiness in the aroma; lively tartness, nicely dry; crisp, refreshing, and approachable. Solid tart citrus, mild acidity, and pleasantly soft wheat note upfront; basic, refreshing; light-to-medium mouthfeel; solid, approachable Berliner weisse. Very drinkable. Light finish: crisp citrus, wheat; very clean ending overall. biggcb (442), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 24, 2008 Draft - part of sampler at brewery. Pours a golden yellow with a bubbly white head. Aroma is wheat, lemon rind. Flavor is wheat, sour, lemon. Crisp and refreshing. scraff (1667), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Jun 9, 2008 Tap – Nodding Head. Clear light gold, thin fizzy white head. Lemon zest aromas warm to light grassy sour white grape tones. A touch of cereal plays out late. Tart dry lemony flavor balances well on notes of earthy wheat. Light bodied, prickly carbonation, earthed citric finish. A nice summer session brew in my book... RblWthACoz (959), Brooklyn, New York, USA Feb 2, 2008 Pours a very pale straw. White head. Nose is a tangy tart. Flavor is crisp with a smooth citric tone. Gives a bit of a kick in the back of the mouth, but not a whole lot really. More like a bump I guess. Feel has a good carbonation and a thinner, but appropriate liquid feel. This can be a weird style to tackle, and I say it was handled pretty well here. 1FastSTi (2402), Glendale, Wisconsin, USA Oct 23, 2007 GABF 2007. Ok, I must be crazy as this beer was stand-out at the festival (for a Berliner Weisse) bit it rates pretty damned low. The beer pours to a damn near water looking light pale yellow plastic body with a thin white head. The aroma is wheat cereal and that typical Berliner Weiss sour character. The flavor is tart and lactic with a nice wheat cereal and sour funk. Very good clean wheat. The palate is very refreshing with a sour Berliner Weiss character. Light body. Very good.
