Mikkeller Hallo Ich Bin Berliner Weisse Raspberry Berliner Weisse at 3.7% ABV (US$4.99 at Knightly Spirits Orange Blossom Trail, 500 ml, best before 20-Oct-2017, acquired 15-May-2017, reviewed 16-Jun-2017)
Appearance: clear reddish gold with one fat finger of fluffy light pink head, excellent retention and well-defined lacing. (5/5) Aroma: raspberry, light funk. (9/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (9/10) Light body, lively carbonation, crisp tart finish. (4/5)
I was hoping the raspberry would work better than the passionfruit, and it did not disappoint. The raspberry dominates, with the only other aroma being a slight funkiness, but that’s not a negative. Slightly less tart, and slightly fruiter than the passionfruit version. Basically a super tart, low sugar, slightly alcoholic raspberry soda, and totally the kind of thing you could drink all day long on a hot sunny day. (18/20)
