Grapsberry BW - Berliner Weisse

Berliner Weisse is a classic beer style that has become an integral part of today's craft beer scene The sour beer from the capital city was long forgotten and fell into disrepute This sad development can probably be traced back to the syrup To balance out the crisp acidity of the Weisse, the beer was mixed with various syrups for a while This practice is still in use today

Craft beer brewers and connoisseurs appreciate the special tartness of the style and often accompany it with matching fruit The Swedish brewery Brewski, for example, brews raspberries and grapefruit These fruits, in addition to their sweetness, bring a very special tartness that fits perfectly with the character of Berliner Weisse

The creation is called Grapsberry, grapefruit plus raspberry, and tastes just like it: the summery aroma of ripe raspberries dominates the first sip and conjures up memories of grandma's raspberry hedge and her delicious raspberry cake on the tongue The more you drink, the more clearly you can feel the influence of the grapefruit The tart citrus fruit rounds off the beer enjoyment harmoniously with tangy acidity and a hint of bitterness
