Freak Out! by Liquid Light is a refreshing interpretation of a Berliner Weisse, elevated by the addition of fresh watermelon juice. The beer leads with a clean, sharp lactic sourness that is elegantly softened by the succulent, natural sweetness of the fruit. Beneath the watermelon, a foundation of bready wheat malt provides a subtle, doughy complexity reminiscent of sourdough. The sensory experience is bright and effervescent, showcasing a crisp acidity that defines the style. This sessionable sour ale emphasizes a quenching, fruity finish, perfectly balancing the traditional German tartness with a vibrant, summery fruit profile.
Appearance.Straw to very pale gold (2-4 SRM) with a slight haze from the wheat and fruit additions; produces a large, white, fizzy head with poor retention and minimal lacing.
Aroma.Moderate to high sharp lactic sourness dominates, layered with a distinct, natural watermelon fruitiness. Background notes of raw bread dough and light lemon citrus are present; hop aroma is absent.
Taste.Initial impression is a clean, brisk lactic tartness immediately followed by the refreshing, juicy flavor of watermelon. A bready, grainy wheat malt backbone supports the acidity. Hop bitterness is undetectable, and the balance is driven by the interplay of sourness and fruit. The finish is very dry and crisp.
Mouthfeel.Light body with high carbonation, creating a spritzy and effervescent sensation. No alcohol warmth is perceived. Crisp, puckering acidity with a clean, non-astringent mouthfeel.
