This Smoothie Style Berliner Weisse presents an opaque, vibrant purple hue, merging a traditional German wheat base with a decadent array of fruit and adjuncts. A sharp, lactic acidity anchors the profile, immediately met by a concentrated burst of tart blackberry, blackcurrant, and elderberry. Strawberry and pear soften the acidity with juicy sweetness, while the addition of coconut yogurt introduces a lush, creamy texture. Subtle earthy undertones of cacao nibs provide a sophisticated, slightly dark counterpoint to the fruit-forward intensity. It is a modern, high-viscosity interpretation of the style, balancing refreshing sourness with a rich, smoothie-like dessert character.
Appearance.Opaque, deep magenta to royal purple. Dense, pink-tinted head with moderate retention. High turbidity consistent with the smoothie sub-style.
Aroma.High intensity. Dominant tart berry notes of blackcurrant and elderberry are at the forefront. Substantial sharp lactic sourness. Subtle creamy coconut and a faint hint of dark chocolate from cacao nibs are present. Light bready wheat notes reside in the background.
Taste.A powerful lactic sourness dominates the initial impression. Immediate fruit explosion follows: tart chokeberry and blackcurrant provide a sharp edge, followed by the sweeter influence of strawberry and pear. The mid-palate reveals a creamy, tangy yogurt character. The finish is acidic yet smooth, with a lingering dark berry essence and faint cacao bitterness. Hop flavor is undetectable.
Mouthfeel.Full-bodied and viscous; creamy and tongue-coating. Moderate carbonation. Light alcohol warmth. Low astringency despite the heavy fruit and berry skin presence.
