Flavoured Berliner Weisse (with passionfruit, lime and – weirdly – ‘beet’), a collab of this Florida craft brewer with renowned Swedish Brewski. From a 44 cl can shared with Craftmember and Steve at Bar Beenhouwer. Egg-white, loose, bubbly head, quickly disappearing into as good as nothing; hazy ochre-ish tinged apricot blonde robe. Aroma of sweet tropical fruit (mango-maracuja coulis) with the passionfruit upfront in a very dominant way, strong clear lime as well, sour grapes, sour yoghurt, lemon flesh, redcurrant, pumice. Sour onset but not harshly so, very explicitly lime-like, softly acidic edges but a whole lot of sweet passionfruit too, more intense and pronounced than the sourness; medium carb, drying sourness but the sweet passionfruit keeps dominating over a slender wheaty, cereally malt base; very light earthy touch in the finish (for all I know, this could well be the beet’s contribution), passionfruit and lime remaining dominant with a light chalky note in the end, as with most Berliner Weisses for some reason. Cocktail-like (or mocktail perhaps, at this ABV), frankly rather childish interpretation of a flavoured Berliner Weisse – way too much sweet passionfruit and perfumey lime obscure the very beer itself. Berliner Weisse in a simplistic way, a generic kettle soured beer in fact, but surely accessible to larger audiences who have no idea about the historical properties of the style.

440ml can from Pien. Pours reddish pink with a tiny head. Aroma of tartish tropical fruits, berries, spices, hints of lactic sourness, lime, grapefruit and passionfruit. Taste is tart, tropical fruity and sourish with some lactic notes, lime, grapefruit, passionfruit and hints of beetroot. Finish is sourish and tart with some berries, fruits, passionfruit and lime notes. Quite refreshing and interesting combination of fruits and berries. Pretty good.

Can thanks to Adam. Pours a hazy ruby with small off white head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is strong lime, earth, wheat. Thin body, beet juice, lime zest, nice tartness, enjoyed this.

0,5l can from Pien, Espoo. Hazy, orange red beer with medium but quite quickly vanishing light red head. Aroma has sweet malts, tart and fruits, apple mainly. Taste has sweet but tart malts, fruits and berries. Delicious, enjoyable and easy to drink
