Off Color Brewing Yuzu Fierce

What the brewers say

“Our kettle-soured, free-rise-fermented Berliner weisse with yuzu fruit.”

What our panel thought

“Hints of candied ginger and spice mingle with key lime, peach, and pineapple-like tropical fruit notes. Quite tart but not aggressive, accentuating the spiciness and rounding out some residual fruity sweetness.”

What our editors thought

“Alternating waves of funky green citrus and a prickly pear–like minty fruit note. Sip is richly fruit-forward but in the least predictable way—dry honeydew and cantaloupe with a slightly sharp acid underpinning. Quirky, unexpected, satisfyingly hooky.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

TRVE Brewing Company Axioma

Complex aroma that is rich and funky with barnyard, lemon, and hints of tar. Similar complexity through the finish, just short of the line of being harsh despite restrained sourness.

TRVE Brewing Co. Meditation is the Practice of Death

Rich fruit character, though not distinctly cherry; also Brett, wood, and earth. Lack of head suggests wine. Oak character adds pleasant light spiciness, with fruit fermentation esters; tart, with berry notes. Subtle yet complex.

KC Bier Co. Weizenbock

“Bread-crust and wheat notes provide a complex malt aroma, with just a hint of floral hops and banana esters. The flavor is big, with bread crust and honey-like notes, and just a hint of apricot and floral hop bitterness.”
