On tap at the Arrow and Loon, Ottawa. Pours a foamy inch thick head and has a cloudy golden/light amber appearance. Intensely sour on the palate. Stays for a while and is a bit difficult to make out the flavours at first. After a few sips, the sour apple taste is noticeable. Very tangy, with a lemony lime finish. Nice and light mouthfeel. Somewhat tingling sensation. Not too bad. This one was marked on the menu at 3.5%abv.

Had this on tap and now sampling the bottled version. Pours a clouded light gold color with a smallish cap because of the acidity in these sour ales. Aroma approximates a Berlin sour wheat - sourdough aromas, sweet ’n sour tones like dry cider with some earthy hop undertones. Zero sweetness in the flavor, just a tart sour cider, naturally effervescent, lightly hopped light brew, clean dry finish and a lovely puckering palate. A very good rendition of this unique style. Well done BB.

On tap At Gig's - this is a hazed pale gold ale in the glass, puffy white 2 finger cap with fair retention. Aromas are demure but there is the biscuity smell of whealt malt, some fruitiness and earthy hops. Crisp and clean on the palate, dry in the finish. This is a biscuity, tart- fruity, spritzy, and refreshing ale with a dab of sweeness at the end - very much in line with the true Berlinner weisse style. Good effort on this great summer quencher.

I tried this beer on July 20, 2012 at "Bar Volo" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a very hazed golden colour with a thick creamy white head which quickly dissipated. The aroma was tart fruit, funk, and some wheat. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with mild carbonation. The flavour was tart earthiness, funk, and wheat. It truly lives up to the billing of a tart hefeweizen. Not sure I want to try another one of the style.
