Bend Brewing Co Ching Ching
What the brewers say
“Pomegranate-and-hibiscus Berliner weisse.”
What our panel thought
“Attractive, like carbonated, crystal-clear cranberry juice with a velvety, robust head and wine-like cranberry aroma. The cranberry-like tartness nicely balances the sweetness and leaves a crisp, dry impression. Hibiscus comes through, then pomegranate and mild grapefruit.”
What our editors thought
“Bright pomegranate nose without funky distractions. In the sip, a relatively dry approach, with clearly expressed fruit and gorgeous color. Punchy, without leaning on sweetness to sell it.”
