This refreshing sour was flooded with a mix of blackberries, raspberries, and boysenberries which blast over the palate. The rich and intense fruit flavors are matched by an invigorating tartness.

Aromas in the can were intense almost floral berries mellowing out a lot in the glass to Some berry and straw. Flavors are like nose, pretty dry with barrist hint of sweet mainly in the finish. Good carbonation but a little on the thin side. Drinkable tart berry beer but kind of generic.

Can (6/19/20) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is REALLY pretty opaque pinkish-red with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width fizzy white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong sweet/tart raspberry over blackberry. Taste follows aroma exactly. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with somewhat watery texture, average carbonation, strong tart quality hitting me at the back of the mouth and crisp, dry finish. Overall, probably one of my favorite Berliner Weisses but that's because I don't like the traditional style. The flavored, fruited variety makes it palatable to me. But, people who like the style must be going, WTF? And, either way, this seems so far away from what I think of as beer. Is beer now just a way of saying how something was made? A pretty enjoyable beverage.

16 oz. can. Beautiful magenta color. Aroma is all blackberry and raspberry purée. Flavor pops with the fruit and has a mild yogurt hint in the back end. Solid tartness in the finish that is balanced by fruit.

Can from Chris, thanks for the opportunity! Lightly hazy dark pink in color with a white head that has a tint of pink in it. Big berry aroma and flavor. Lemony with hints of grapefruit and guava. Pretty tasty tart smoothie.
