La Degustator Goumi Bärliner

Tap to rate

Candy-sweet in flavour: the brewery describes the taste as super-chemical sweets brought specially from Quebec, and calls the beer shamefully brilliant with ceviche. It is a strong Berliner Weisse at 6% from BFM's Degustator series, meant as a beer for grown-up kids. Available in 37.5 cl bottles and on draught in 20-litre kegs.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright, candy-like sweetness reminiscent of hard sweets and confectionery notes, paired with subtle citrus undertones and a gentle tartness. Minimal hop aroma allows the fermentation character and fruity esters to shine through, with a faint yeasty note that grounds the composition.

◐ Taste

The palate delivers the promised candy-sweet entry, with an almost gummy-sweet character that dominates the mid-palate before a pronounced tartness and mild sourness emerge. The 6% alcohol presence adds a subtle warmth and slight boozy note, while moderate dryness and crisp carbonation balance the sweetness, creating a playful tension between indulgence and refreshment.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and snappy, with lingering citrus acidity and a gentle drying sensation that encourages another sip. The aftertaste remains clean and refreshing, fading to a subtle tart mineral note.

Weizen glass

Tall and narrow at the base, flaring at the top — designed to hold the abundant foam of a wheat beer while showcasing its hazy golden body.
