Pinkish magenta cloudy body with a pinkish cap. Tart and sweet passionfruit in a good berliner with notes of cracker, lemon, wheat and salt in both smell and taste. Feel is very tart and decently acidic, but it doesn't lose the script with wheat and salt making impacts. Fun and regional emphasis, refreshing even, not the most complex but it delivers what is promised

On tap at Bayberry Beer Hall
Well I wasn’t expecting Bayberry to have the BA highest rated Berliner Weisse on tap for their 6th anniversary party, but I’m hyped that they do. Let’s get into it
Pours a clear ruby reddish with a finger of pinkish red head that quickly fades to a thin ring and leaves minimal lacing
Honestly the nose on this one isn’t anything too impressive. I dig it but it’s a bit sweet. I’m picking up on aromas of cherry candy, passion fruit, pineapple juice, crackery malt, lemon zest, light dragonfruit, and vanilla
Oh no, I stand corrected, that is much better in taste. Nicely tart and well balanced. On the front end of the sip I’m tasting passion fruit, underripe mango, lemon juice, apricot gummy, straw, apple cider vinegar, dragonfruit, and tart cherry. The swallow brings notes of lemon juice, pineapple juice, dragonfruit, cherry candy, crackery malt, underripe mango, and a touch of vanilla
A medium body pairs with moderate carbonation, resulting in a a crisp beer. Finishes slightly sticky but the feel isn’t ruined by it
This is very solid stuff. It doesn’t quite live up to my expectations but it was still great to try

Brewers Notes: Berliner Weisse brewed with dragon fruit and passion fruit
Saw the #1 rated Berliner Weiss at Empire Liquors! Hello? Yes please !!
Chilled clear bomber bottle to show off the big pink liquid. Ruby red liquid capped by a pink fizzy foam cap that quickly fades when poured into a schilling stemmed glass
Aroma is passion fruit ,and, I guess dragon fruit
Taste is passion fruit, tart , not too sweet , and, I guess again dragon fruit
Fizzy , sudsy mouthfeel that settles to a tart tanginess , clean,crisp, tangy
Good beer

Bites of fruit flesh as you sip through this very bright end vibrant look aid spritz
