For my second beer of the night, I had the Berliner Style Weisse from Bayerischer Bahnhof. This was one of the newest beers at Nikki’s. The beer pours a pale cloudy yellow with almost no head. Lots of carbonation quickly shows up and goes away. Beer smells of a tart lemon bread (if lemon bread existed). Taste is similar. It’s slightly tart/sour, a little bready, and kind of sweet all at once. Being an unfiltered wheat beer, it’s no surprise that it is a bit bready in mouthfeel. It’s a good beer. It’d be great on a hot summer afternoon. It’s got a nice palate-cleansing quality to it. I’d buy it again, but I’ll likely wait for summer. I want to compare this to Dogfish Head Festina PĂȘche, an American take on this old German style.
