What the brewers say
“A refreshing, gently tart, German-style wheat beer. Our take on the classic Berliner has a blend of citric and fruit notes with nods to cider and sauvignon blanc.”
What our panel thought
“Tart, slightly salty, lemon, and light cracker. The enjoyable lemony notes come across as a ‘grown-folks’ lemonade and could easily get you (and perhaps your toes) in trouble if you attempt to use this as a lawnmower beer. This is distinctively crisp beer is dangerously crushable.”
What our editors thought
“Crisp yet mild lemony acidity in the flavor is punctuated by a light nose that only hints at the tartness. It’s clean and succinct, not too sweet and not too dry, like a San Pellegrino Limonata with its own adult kick.”
