Berried at Sea

Tap to rate

Berried at Sea is a fruit wheat ale from the brewpub's specialty list, brewed with a purée of red raspberries, blackberries and boysenberries. It pours a hazy rosé colour, and the nose is dominated by ripe red berries with a jammy blackberry edge. On the palate the fruit is bright and slightly tart without turning sour, while the wheat gives a soft, rounded body. Hops stay in the background, bitterness is low, and the finish is crisp and dry with a lingering berry note.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Berried at Sea

◎ Appearance

Pours a hazy rosé colour with a soft, diffuse quality characteristic of unfiltered wheat ales. The cloudiness from suspended yeast and grain particles creates an inviting, translucent appearance. Head retention is moderate, with fine bubbles that settle into a delicate lacing around the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose is immediately dominated by ripe red berries—raspberry and blackberry lead, with a jammy blackberry undertone that sits slightly behind the brighter fruit notes. Wheat provides a subtle backdrop of soft grain, while hop character remains entirely in the shadows, allowing the fruit purée to command the olfactory profile.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with bright, slightly tart berry fruit that avoids crossing into sour territory, maintaining acidity as a seasoning rather than a dominant feature. Wheat malz delivers a soft, rounded mouthfeel that supports the fruit without adding heaviness. Bitterness is kept minimal at 10 IBU, allowing the natural tartness of the berries and a crisp, dry finish to take centre stage.
