A huge thanks to Jeff for continuing to bring the Barrel Theory goodness!!! 750ml can in Night Shift stemware.
Awesome color. Makes my full glass look like one giant blueberry. Nose is as advertised. Blueberry, lemon and lime are apparent. It's not puckering... which I like. Instead the acidity from the lemon and lime create a nice, fresh, zesty aroma. Not the most pungent though. Beer opens blueberry, strawberry and cherry sweetness. Juicy as hell with a light, tartness in the middle for balance. There's more flavor and fruit here than sour. It's much appreciated. The lemon and lime shows up towards the back. Subtle. Delicious. No single fruit dominates and it's balanced enough for each ingredient to be showcased. Really really good. Body is light with ample carbonation. Prickly and lively on the palate. Sparkling going down with an aggressive finish. Easy to drink. Goes down quenching and refreshing.
This one's near perfect and there's little to say beyond that. Definitely worth trying.

Had this in an 4 oz at the brewery. The beer was dark pink with a pink head with an incredible, sweet mix of raspberry and lemon for its aromas. For taste, their is incredible tartness with a sweet raspberry flavor. Very crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this was excellent.

On tap. Vibrant electric purple color. Pink head.
The blueberries and raspberries show the most. The lime shows in the finish. Lemon citrus throughout. Very fruity beer with a nice amount of tart/sour. BT seems to have really dialed in on their Berliner’s as they are all at world class level lately.
