Wild Sour Series: Lynnbrook Raspberry

◎ Appearance

A striking fuchsia hue dominates the glass, displaying exceptional clarity despite its wild fermentation origins. The thin, delicate head dissipates quickly, leaving minimal lacing on the glass walls. Fine carbonation creates a gentle effervescence befitting the beer's refreshing 4.2% ABV.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with vibrant raspberry and lemon notes that immediately establish the beer's fruity character. Beneath the bright fruit lies a subtle yogurt-like creaminess, underscored by a delicate lactic sourness and a whisper of Brie's earthy funk. The aromatic profile balances tartness with gentle fermentation character, inviting further exploration.

◐ Taste

Fresh tart raspberries dominate the palate from entry through mid-palate, supported by bright citric acidity and a persistent sourness that defines the Berliner Weisse tradition. Creamy, yogurt-like undertones provide subtle texture without heaviness, while a hint of brie adds savory complexity. The minimal bitterness (4 IBU) allows fruit and acid to lead without interference.

◑ Finish

The finish remains crisp and refreshing, with residual tartness lingering pleasantly on the palate. The aftertaste fades cleanly, leaving a dry, quenching sensation that invites another sip.
