Bereta Pastry Sour

◎ Appearance

A pale, almost colorless straw-gold body with exceptional clarity and a delicate white head that settles to a thin collar. Fine carbonation produces a soft, persistent sparkle without aggressive bubbling. The lacing clings gently to the glass in fine strands, suggesting a well-integrated lactose component.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright berry and stone-fruit notes—hints of strawberry and peach—layered beneath a subtle tropical backdrop of passion fruit and light citrus. A gentle tartness emerges on closer inspection, underpinned by a clean, slightly creamy lactose sweetness that keeps the impression balanced and refreshing rather than sharp.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a soft, fruity entry that immediately reveals the characteristic tartness of a well-composed sour. Mid-palate brings forward those tropical and berry flavors alongside the smooth, creamy lactose body that prevents the acidity from becoming harsh. Bitterness is restrained at 28 IBU, playing only a supporting role and allowing the fruit and sour character to remain in the foreground through a clean, dry finish.

◑ Finish

The finish is refreshing and medium in length, with the tartness receding gracefully as a subtle berry and tropical-fruit memory lingers. The aftertaste remains clean and slightly dry, with no harsh or metallic notes.

Serve at 8–12°C. Saison is refreshing but complex — cold works, but slightly warmer shows its farmhouse character.

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
