Description
Berliner Weisse is a traditional beer style originating in northern Germany, particularly Berlin. It is a lightly tart, low-alcohol beer made with a mixture of wheat and barley malt, usually with the addition of a lactic fermentation culture. It has a pale yellow hue, with a crisp, refreshing flavor and a slightly sour aftertaste due to the lactic acid. The beer is traditionally served with a shot of raspberry or woodruff syrup, which adds sweetness and balances out the sourness. Berliner Weisse is a light, effervescent beer that is perfect for hot summer days and pairs well with lighter foods, like salads and seafood.
