Bottle - pours orange gold white head - Nose and taste of yuzu, lemon, lactose sourness and orange peel - lighter medium body
Bottle from Gambrinus. Pours a clearish gold with a small white head. Light tart lacto yogurt aromas with some lemon and gooseberry notes as it warms. Light on the palate, slightly creamy. Lemon curd. Tart finish that lingers. Didn’t find any yuzu in my bottle. Still an eloquent take on the style.
On tap @ The Forge Fort Collins. Clear, light yellow golden appearance with a white head. Lemon lime soda, guava, passion fruit in the aroma. Light body, low sweetness, low bitterness, moderately tart. Really drinkable. Juicy. Great season beer. I’d definitely buy this again if it’s available at a reasonable price.
12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours fairly hazy/cloudy bright golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin spotty cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange peel, green apple, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, grass, light funk, and yeast earthiness. Fantastic aromas with great balance and complexity fruity/acidic yeast, yuzu, and light-moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Very vibrant and fresh smelling. Taste of big tart lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange peel, green apple, wheat, cracker, hay, straw, grass, light pepper/funk, and yeast earthiness. Moderate amount of fruity/acidic tartness and light yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange peel, green apple, hay, straw, light funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, yuzu, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/tartness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Good amount of dryness from acidity and carbonation as well. Medium-high carbonation and light body; with a very smooth, crisp, fairly acidic, and slightly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is great. Alcoohl is very well hidden with zero warming present after the finish as expected of 3.8%. Overall this is an outstanding fruited Berliner weisse style. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/acidic yeast, yuzu, and light-moderate pale malt flavors; and very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink. A highly enjoyable offering.
Light yellow and a little cloudy. No head. Smells awesome. A ton of Lemon juice! Good filling mouthfeel. Juicy with sour lemon juice and wheat with tart citrus. Very light and delicious
