On tap at Ambulance, tartly citric moderation utilizes freshly-squeezed orange juicing, but its affectation fades fast as soured lemon pucker gains hold above salty bottom. Wispy mandarin orange, curacao orange and blood orange undertones given clean mineral-watered crisping.

RIVERTOWN DIVERGENT BERLINER STYLE SOUR ALE
WEYERBACHER TARTE NOUVEAU SESSION SOUR
On tap at Ambulance, loosely defined Berliner Weiss brings tart lemon-soured pucker to the fore above musty barnyard-dried straw wheat leathering. Vinous white-wined cider acidity, sharp green apple pucker, oaken cherry snip and mild peach-mango caress pick up salty limestone acridity. Sessionable citric-soured moderation works as stylish crossover for lighter thirsts previously apprehensive about ‘wild ale’ styling.
SMUTTYNOSE BLUEBERRY SHORT WEISS
On tap at Ambulance, leathery Berliner weiss lacks advertised blueberry flavor and aromatics. Instead, tart lemon, oaken cherry and sour yogurt illusions camouflage blueberry blurb as mouth-puckering lactobacillus acidity increases above ultra-dry salt watered bottom.

OFF COLOR FIERCE WEISSE BEER
Whispery straw-paled Berliner Weisse with ‘Napoleanic sour streak’ places lactic citrus tartness and subtle limestone bittering above delicate wheat-flaked pilsner malts. Kettle-soured lemon zest, green lime and tannic white grape illusions receive stylish briny salting. At the salty lemon-limed finish, plain yogurt tang adds delicate intrigue to low alcohol delight.
PERENNIAL/ EVIL TWIN LOOMI WEISSE BLACK BERLINER WEISS W/ UMAMI
Confoundingly hybridized kettle-soured black berliner collaboration utilizes tart omani lime pucker and lactic brettanomyces acidity to engage syrupy raspberry tannins (as well as tannic green grape-like Balsamic vinegaring). Salted seaweed nuance and grassy hop fizzle increase limey dryness. Compost waft may turn off less adventurous thirsts.
PERENNIAL PEACH BERLINER WEISSE
SAINT ARNOLD BOILER ROOM BERLINER WEISSE
Likable light-bodied (3.5% ABV) sour wheat ale brings tart lemon limed pucker to the fore as gose-like coriander salting takes a backseat. Lightly acidic green apple mildness and vinous grape tannins provide soft pungency. At the finish, fresh-squeezed lemonade niche and plain yogurt milking reinforce lactic wort-soured citrus continuance.
NEW HOLLAND INCORRIGIBLE
Impressive Berliner Weisse spreads soured wild yeast and leathery brettanomyces bacteria across puckering lemon-candied tartness. Granny Smith apple sharpness, lemon-juiced white wining and ester-y white grape tannins pick up light balsamic vinegaring at the ultra-dry finish.
