Sakiskiu Alus Passion Fruit Sour Ale

Like many classic beer styles from times long past, Berliner Weisse is also experiencing a revival in the wake of the craft beer movement Many young brewers are taking up the capital's beer and interpreting it in their very own way Instead of adding syrup as in the past, many prefer to add fresh fruit in the form of juice or puree, resulting in a wonderfully crisp sour beer with harmonious fruit notes - perfect for the summer!

The brewers at Lithuanian brewery Sakiškių alus are also fans of the modernized Berliner Weisse: Together with their friends from Christiania Bryghus in Copenhagen, they have put their very own stamp on the beer style with their own lactic acid cultures and passion fruit puree Cold hopping is also not included in the traditional recipe, which the brewers used to transport the pure taste of Citra and Mosaic into the beer And even the yeast is something special Instead of a common yeast strain, the brewers use Fermoale Citrus, a variety of yeast obtained through hybridization It gives the beer a pronounced citrus aroma that complements the fruitiness and acidity of the passion fruit wonderfully

The pale golden beer is wonderfully tart, refreshing, fruity and light on its feet It goes perfectly with Mediterranean cuisine, good company and the last rays of sunshine of the day
