This interpretation of a Berliner Weisse pushes the boundaries of the style with a vibrant, smoothie-like profile. A sharp lactic sourness provides the foundation for an explosion of jammy blackberry and stone-fruit apricot notes. The addition of vanilla and marshmallow creates a confectionery-like sweetness that rounds out the acidic bite, reminiscent of a fruit-laden dessert. While the base is rooted in a traditional wheat-centric sour ale, the 6.2% ABV and dense fruit purée result in a much fuller, more indulgent sensory experience than a standard example, finishing with a lingering, creamy berry sweetness and a soft, pillowy texture.
Appearance.Opaque and thick, displaying a deep purple to magenta hue. Pours with a dense, pale pink head that shows surprisingly moderate retention for a sour ale, leaving light lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High intensity fruity aroma dominated by ripe, jammy blackberries and sun-ripened apricots. A distinct sugary marshmallow and creamy vanilla sweetness overlays a clean, sharp lactic tartness. No hop aroma or detectable yeast phenols are present.
Taste.Initial punch of tart lactic acidity followed immediately by rich, jammy blackberry and fleshy apricot flavors. The mid-palette is softened by a notable marshmallow and vanilla sweetness. Hop bitterness is undetectable, with the balance shifting between fruit acidity and confectionery sweetness. The finish is lingering and fruity with a creamy, dessert-like aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with a lush, almost pulpy texture that is far more substantial than the base style. Moderate carbonation. A subtle alcohol warmth is present, complemented by a significant creaminess from the marshmallow and fruit solids.
