Calypso roars with sharp, spritzy and mouth-puckering sensation, accented by tropical and citrussy hop aroma. It's clean, refreshing and always keeps you going back for more. Our sour showcase rotates the dry-hopping, so each brew offers something different and unique. This batch features X.

A hazed golden Weisse with a thin white head. In aroma, nice fruity malt with loads of lemony and buttery notes, Epsom salts, tropical fruit, kiwi, mango, very nice. In mouth, a nice tart mix of lemon pulp and sweet tropical fruits, mango and papaya, very nice and complex. Bottle from Cheese and Wine Trader.

There’s a very distinctive aroma of ruby grapefruit together with lemon, some dirty socks and a bit more lemon. It’s very tart but mellows off nicely in the back of the throat and leaves a warm lemony aftertaste to keep you warm on a winter night, oddly enough for a Berliner Weisse

Bottle, courtesy of Minuteman in EuroSwap 04/16, many thanks! Pours very pale yellow with a medium head. Aroma is light hay, citric fruits. Body is very light, crisp, lightly tart, a tad sour. Not lactic, though. Refreshing.

Bottle from Brewcraft at home. Hazy light straw yellow pour thin fine white head. Aroma is sharp citrus tart and bitter. Taste follows - quite refreshing dry lemon tartness. But not too tart. Finish is clean and lemony. Fine carbonation and not too bubbly. Really good Berliner weisse.
