    @SteveSexton203 - think you've nailed down two great examples of the extreme variance in Berliners with Nomader Weisse & Fritz Briem 1809.
    Nowhere near the same flavor profile - yet both are tasty, excellent takes on the style.
    Cheers!

    None! One of my least favorite styles, but those de Garde look delicious.

    Like to throw Hottenroth into the mix, that is occasionally available, and worthy

    Another Vote for DFH Festina- love the tartness, drinkability and the flavor is great.

    I love " bog sauce " by Toolbox brewing out of San Diego. Purple drink is also another really good one with boysenberries.

    I too get heart burn when it comes to some of the more sour beers... so far most of the berliners I can stand as long as I am not drinking more than two or so.

    Glad I'm not the only one. Sometimes I just pop a few tums and then enjoy one anyway.

    Bell's Oarsman is the only one that I know of in bottles or cans, fortunately it is pretty good.

    Definitely something I'm always happy to buy a ton of when I get the chance, they don't distribute I Iowa and I just drank my last one from last years release. Now I just need to find a reason to go to Illinois.

    Grimm Future Perfect was very good however I have a Firestone Walker Barrelworks Bretta Rose waiting in the wings that I expect to be awesome.
