Beers similar to 1809 Berliner Style Weisse

Dr. Fritz Briem

Berliner Weisse·Germany·5% ABV·One of 46 Berliner Weisses in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share 1809 Berliner Style Weisse's tart and sour character. Intense lactic tartness meets a complex fruitiness in this traditional Berliner Weisse, made to keep developing in the bottle. The name points to 1809, when the style was still brewed the old way. A single-step decoction mash with 50 % wheat malt takes all the hops, fermentation runs in open fermenters and horizontal lager tanks, and the beer stays bottle-conditioned, unfiltered and unpasteurized.
