🌍 United States · Berliner Weisse · One of 16 Berliner Weisses in hopIQ

Stealth Mode is a kettle-soured wheat ale in the Berliner Weisse tradition, finished with several hundred pounds of blueberries. It pours a deep purple to burgundy with a pink head. The nose is jammy blueberry with bramble fruit and a touch of lime. On the palate, bright, puckering tartness comes first, then ripe blueberry, a light raspberry-like note and a faint wheat character. The body is light to medium and the finish dry.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Stealth Mode

◎ Appearance

Stealth Mode presents a striking deep purple to burgundy hue, a result of the substantial blueberry adjunct and kettle-souring technique. The head is notably pink and maintains moderate retention, with delicate Schaumkleiden clinging to the glass. The body reads clear to slightly translucent, with gentle carbonation evident throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with jammy blueberry and bramble fruit character, underpinned by a light lime zest that cuts through the stone-fruit complexity. Beneath the fruit-forward profile, subtle wheat notes emerge, with a faint acidity that signals the kettle-souring process. No aggressive hop presence; instead, an elegant restraint allows the adjuncts and fermentation to breathe.

◐ Taste

Entry is defined by bright, puckering tartness—the lactic character typical of a kettle-soured Berliner Weisse. Mid-palate develops ripe blueberry with a subtle raspberry-like note that balances the acidity, while a light wheat backbone provides structure without weight. Bitterness remains restrained at 10 IBU, allowing stone-fruit and acid to dominate the sensory arc.

◑ Finish

The finish is notably dry, with the tart edge persisting into a lingering blueberry fade. No residual sweetness; the acidity and fruit carry through cleanly to the aftertaste.
