Sierra Nevada / Saint Arnold Brewing Company Beer Camp Across the World: Dry-Hopped Berliner-Style Weisse Berliner Weisse at 4.2% ABV | 10 IBU (US$2.15 at Beer Thirty Bottle Shop & Pour House, 355 ml, packaged on 18-Apr-2017, acquired 21-Jun-2017, reviewed 22-Jun-2017)
Appearance: clear straw with one finger of fluffy white head diminishing gradually to a thin ring, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: sour lactic wheat, citrus, grass, hint of sulphur giving way to dank resin. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (8/10) Light body, moderate carbonation, crisp tart finish. (4/5)
Not bad, but I did initially find a hint of sulphur in the aroma. However, as it progressed and warmed, that developed more into a dank resiny note, causing me to revise my scoring upward. (If the entire beer had been like the last couple of inches, it would have scored higher again!) Light and crisp, with a balanced tartness that refreshes. (14/20)
