Bubbling from top of bottle when first cracked the cap open! Slightly hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a very thin, super fast-dying off-white head. Aroma of light grass, subdued malt, a dose of lemon and citrus and very little else - fairly mild throughout. Light to Medium-bodied; Assertive effervescence; Strong wheat and herbal characteristics at first with a very nice and briny salt component, but this is all about the tart yeast and fruits that are noticeable throughout laying a subtle but distinct sour quotient on top of the yeast and wheat - very nice and elegant. Aftertaste shows the light fruit, a touch of grain and herbs and ending with the tart yeast and wheat elements that make this one a berliner weisse! Overall, a slightly non-normal (gushing bottle, hazy copper glow and not much head at all) beer at first that finishes as a good Berliner would - tart, refreshing and easy-drinking! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Wegman's in Fairfax, Virginia on 21-July-2018 for US$1,67 sampled almost exactly a year later at home in Washington on 16-July-2019.

On tap at Strangeways, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out light tartness and a touch of citrus. Flavour is very citric, with tons of tart citrus, moderate lacto and a bit of acetic character. Nicely constructed with perhaps a bit too much tartness.

Nice sour flavor without being overpowering. Kind of like a slightly tart or sour apple cider.

$2.79 bottle from Total Wine, West Richmond. Pours clear medium golden with a small, soft white head. Aroma of fingernail polish, minor citrus. Flavor is quite tart - in your face lemon, cracker, salt. Citrus acid on the lips afterwards for sure.
