Magic Road

Magic Road Gooseberry Giveaway is an invigorating and zesty Berliner Weisse that showcases a vibrant interplay between traditional lactic acidity and the tart punch of fresh fruit. The sensory experience is led by a sharply refreshing sourness, perfectly complemented by the bright, tangy notes of gooseberries which evoke impressions of green grapes and citrus. A delicate, doughy wheat backbone provides a soft structural base, reminiscent of fresh sourdough bread. Effervescent and bone-dry, this beer delivers a crisp, puckering finish that is remarkably clean, making it an exceptionally thirst-quenching example of the style.

Appearance. Pale straw with a slight greenish tint. Hazy clarity with a large, dense white head that exhibits poor retention. Highly effervescent with frequent rising bubbles.

Aroma. Moderate to high sharp lactic sourness is dominant. Intense fruitiness featuring tart gooseberry, green apple, and lemon zest. A subtle background of raw bread dough and sourdough malt character is present. No hop aroma or fermentation byproducts.

Taste. A clean, assertive lactic sourness dominates the palate. The flavor is defined by bright, tart gooseberry and citrus-like acidity. A complementary grainy and bready wheat malt flavor is noticeable in the mid-palate but quickly gives way to a very dry, crisp finish. Hop bitterness is undetectable, with the sourness providing the primary balance. No hop flavor is present.

Mouthfeel. Light-bodied with a crisp, acidic bite. Very high carbonation creates a lively, tingly sensation on the tongue. No detectable alcohol warmth, remaining refreshing and light.
