An unclear orange beer with a fine head. The aroma is very sweet and that of raspberry. The flavor is prickly, sweet, raspberry, and acidic - I wouldn't call it a beer. It's more like a sodapop with a metallic aftertaste.

An unclear green beer - with a lasting green head. The last thing I think of when I see it is beer. So the rest is noted with eyes closed. The aroma is light with notes of sweetness, yeast, and spice. The flavor is very sweet and artificial. The sweetness lingers on your lips. The aftertaste is sodapop sweet with artificial spices. The connection to beer is unclear to me.

Acidic cider nose. Pale and hazy low head. Tart and refreshing, lacks in complexity.

Bottled. Mahogany coloured. Softly malty, full bodied, well balanced and bitter. A true bock!

Near black with rich beige head. Coffee aroma. Dry and a bit roasty, although perhaps not as malty as I would like. Medium bitterness. A decent example of the style.

Re-rate: Very dark, burned aroma and chokolate tastenotes, powefull and complex palate - much more than other schwarzbier.

Dry bitter pilsener. Ugh. Maybe it's because of the can, but this is disgusting german pilsener.

Well, the classic Schultheiss Berliner Weisse was brilliant in its sour complexity and ability to refresh. I gave it a 5.0. I cellared a bunch but after the 3rd year it began to turn...figures, since the beer was perfect to begin with. Had some old ones recently, though, from the mid-1970s. Looks like they are West German, but it’s tough to tell.
Berilner Weisse Landre poured flat, pale yellow. The aroma was almost floral, somewhat vinous and woody. It was tart, with maybe some vinegar. The body was a little bit slick from lack of carbo, but it left some tartness on the tongue. Past its prime by a while, but still drinkable. 7-2-6-3-12 = 3.0
Groter Jan Berliner Weisse was a cloudy dull tan. The aroma was a bit autolyzed. The body still had some spritz, 30+ years later. It was tart, with carbonation pulling vegetal notes and some florals across the palate. Pretty decent character, I though, not super fresh but still easily recognizable as a Berliner weisse. 4-2-7-4-15 = 3.2
