This refreshing Berliner Weisse captures the essence of a spring afternoon, pouring with a delicate blush hue derived from the addition of Michigan Montmorency cherries. The sensory journey begins with an insistent sparkle and a fragrant, fruit-forward nose that marries sharp lactic sourness with the bright, tangy profile of the stone fruit. On the palate, a clean, doughy wheat base supports a quenching acidity and a sharp, dry finish. The Michigan Montmorency cherries artfully soften the lactic bite, providing a balanced fruit character that lingers without cloying sweetness. Highly effervescent and light-bodied, it offers a crisp, elegant, and deeply revitalizing sensory experience.

Appearance. Straw to light pink blush (approx 3-5 SRM); large, dense, white to pinkish head with poor retention; ranges from clear to slightly hazy; highly effervescent.

Aroma. Moderate to high sharply sour lactic character is dominant; fragrant Michigan Montmorency cherries provide a bright tart fruitiness; light notes of raw bread dough and sourdough; no hop aroma.

Taste. Initial impression of clean lactic sourness balanced by the tangy character of Michigan Montmorency cherries; soft doughy and grainy wheat malt flavor; undetectable hop bitterness; finishes very dry and quenching with a lingering tartness.

Mouthfeel. Light body; very high carbonation providing a prickly, sparkling sensation; no sensation of alcohol warmth; crisp acidity.
