Drank from a 12 fl. oz. (355ml) can purchased at Craft Beer Cellar, Waterbury, VT
Pkgd on: 06/07/18
Served in a chalice
Ultra pale straw yellow appearance. The nearly transparent body was topped by a small mass of bright white bubbles that quickly fell to a frothy collar. No lacing whatsoever.
Sulfur notes came through strong in the nose. Loads of damp hay too. Slightly musty. Wheaty. Some pale, bready malts were noticeable as well. Moderately sweet. Hint of lemony tartness. A bit soda-like.
The sulfur notes were also apparent in the flavor profile. Bready, biscuity, German-style malts were noticeable up front. Moderate amount of sweetness. Some lemony tartness came through in the center. Hint of acidity. More lemon and lemon rind on the back end and the finish. Bit of sweetness. The malts and sweetness reappeared after the swallow.
Fairly thin and watery mouthfeel, even for the style. The liquid contained a fine, spritzy yet subtle effervescence. This reminded me of seltzer that was going flat.
Lactic acidity? Nope? Lemony tartness? Hardly any. In nearly every regard, this was one of the lightest takes on this typically “light” style of beer I have ever tried. Being a big Bernie fan, I loved the can design and really wanted to like the beer itself. Unfortunately, it left much to be desired.

Wanted this when it first came out. Nice to see a limited release again! Pours a clear whitish-gold hue with a thin head into my glass. Musty wheat comes to mind. Light, crisp and slightly tart. Love the wheat essence in the aftertaste. Skip the IPA and lawnmower lagers and pick THIS up! It goes great on a hot summer day!

Moderate pour yields a 3/4 inch white head over a slightly hazy light golden body with no lacing and head is gone in a few minutes. Nose of wheat, hay, and a real tiny bit of funk. Mostly tart taste with tart finish and very refreshing. Nice feel and overall, a great little Berliner right here. Cheers!

Lightly sparkling pale pineapple gummy bear yellow with a quick to disappear and never to return white carbonation.
Smell is hay, corn, Sprite, light wheat and a hint of Colby Jack.
Taste is almost salty like a Gose, with very light wheat, tart lemon, some spring water and a lactic note.
Very light body with a soft effervescence and a semi-dry rub.
