This beer is an adaptation of a wheat beer brewed in Berlin known as a Berliner weiss. This is a cloudy blond coloured beer lightly tinted by the fruits which are steeped in it: either strawberry, raspberry or blueberry depending on the time of year. It is a highly acidic beer due to the lactic fermentation which takes place. Its aromas are acid, tart, and fruity.A light tasting beer, its acidity is quickly felt on each side of the tongue before leaving all the room for the wonderful fruity taste.

An all-round party for the senses. The body colour is almost unbelievable, with a pure white well-laced head over an Incredible dense and shockingly bright raspberry body. The taste profile is powerful, refreshing and balanced, profiling a medium sour/tart raspberry core with some sweetness and acidity. Mid-range carbonation helps punch up the taste and keep it clean through a long tasty finish. Stupendous summer beer!

Bottle from Fred82. Thank you very much, a very pleasant surprise!
Hazy deep red pour with a small pink head. Great aroma of raspberry pie, some light sourness, and a bright fruitiness, seems light. Incredible sour raspberry, withna great lingering tartness. Touches of funk, but the sourness really takes over. Not overpowering, but just right. The raspberries come back in full force in the finish, and are quite reminiscent of fresh tart raspberries off the plant. Really great stuff!

Super fruit! It's very good, once I figure out which one was which.

16 ounce can from Craft Beer Cellar in Waterbury, VT. Hazy purple color. Frothy pink head. Aroma is slightly tart with big raspberry notes. Flavor is quite tangy with plenty of Berliner Weiss sourness. The raspberry flavor blends with the sour funkiness to make the beer more appealing. Interesting take on the classic German Berliner style.

Bottle, 0.341l. Aroma of raspberries, yeast, citrus and mild funk. Pours cloudy ruby color with thin quickly diminishing creamy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts light sweet grainy and tart berry-like, following is citrusy with tannins, mouthfeel is crisp, while finish is pleasant fruity. Medium body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Refreshing raspberliner...
