Tap at lord hobo. Notes of lemon, lime, cream of wheat, spoiled milk. A touch vegetal. Light creamy wheat character with a welterweight sour lemon milk bite. Beer looks almost green with the lighting in this place so who the knows about the apearance score. Seems nice enough. Flavorful, but. Milky vegetal note is a tad offputing. But this was interesting, and after some getting used to was enjoyable.

A: The beer pours a hazy yellow color with a finger of white head.
S: This one smells very champagne-like. There’s lots of yeast to it, just like champagne. It does have the requisite tart lemon aroma, but it’s also got a bit of a Sweet Tart thing going on.
T: The flavor also has plenty of Sweet Tarts to go with all of the lemon and lemon zest. Like the aroma, heavy on the yeast with sort of a champagne and apple cider flavor to it.
M: The body is light with medium to high carbonation.
O: I always look to try new Berliner Weiss offerings, and this one was certainly an enjoyable one.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Thorpe429 (3562) - Alexandria, Virginia, USA - APR 14, 2011
On tap at the brewpub the morning of Night of the Funk 2010.
Pours a light yellow-orange color with a bit of haze. No artificial coloring here, as Amyliz4 and I declined the syrup offerings from the bartender. The nose is really quite nice, bringing a strong lemon component with a bit of citrus and light acid.
The flavor brings some wheat and really quite a bit of tartness. There isn’t much complexity here; maybe some light lemon and other citrus, but mostly just a strong tartness. Feel is nice with a good sour character and a dry finish. A nice beer, but there wasn’t all that much to keep pulling me back.
Serving type: on-tap

Sampled at GABF on 9/17/2010. This Berliner Weisse pours a slightly hazy light yellow gold color from the tap. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is citrusy, fruity and tart.

Well, I just had this on tap at Novare Res, so maybe it should be unretired. Served in a goblet. Very pale hazy orange with ring and lace. White wine tartness in aroma with a hint of sweetness vanilla. White wine tart with lemon meringue and mild honey sweetness and some lingering grapefruit. Refreshing. Good carbo. Pretty good.

Clarkvv hooked this awesome juice up. No head, no bubbles, and no nonsnese. Smells like lactic acid, fruit, and grass. Taste is pure bliss. Tart and wheaty. Could pound this all day long.

Light straw color. White head that left very fast. Tart, vinious wheat aroma. Flavor is tart, sour and raw. I have no problem with sourness, but there needs to be something to go along with it. This is just plain sour. Hugely mouth puckering and acidic. Actually something that I’d rather have a full pint of than just a 3 oz taste. Guite refreshing and enjoyable, but leaves wanting in the depth department.

Growler shared by Clarkvv on 8/4/06. Pours is a clean crisp lightly yellow alsmost clear, light vanilla like color with a small fizzy head. Nose is lightly sour with some light hints of fruit. palate is thin and crisp, quite refreshing. Flavor is more of the light fruit notes, some apples and peaches like notes and a crisp clean finish.
