Victory Berliner Weisse With Elderflower

Victory Berliner Weisse With Elderflower is 5.2% ABV, and has an enjoy by date of 11/16/16. This is the third release in The Blackboard Series.

The pour is a slightly cloudy light yellow color, a good looking white head on top of the beer to start before it fades away. The aroma is slightly tart and floral. What I’m getting on the nose isn’t all that impressive, and then I remember the style and realize it isn’t all that inappropriate at all. Lemon and the perfect replication of Sweetart candy makes up the majority of the taste. The elderflower might be adding something, but in all honesty I am not sophisticated enough to tell you exactly what it is. Maybe a touch more tart than I would expect from a Berliner, but I am down with that.

Light. Tart. Easy to drink… pretty much all I need in Berliner Weissebier.
