White Rabbit Brewery
Tap to rate
🌍 Australia · Berliner Weisse · One of 12 Berliner Weisses in hopIQ

Made from the wort of the white ale and soured into a berliner weisse, first for a beer festival in 2013 and since bottled as a barrel hall release. The acidity is gentle rather than bracing, and the soft spice of the base beer carries through over a malt body fuller than the 3.1 percent would suggest. Lemon and light grapefruit sit on top. Fruit syrups and purées are a common addition, which the brewery encourages rather than resists.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Teddywidder

Appearance

Pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass. The carbonation is visible and lively, creating a gently effervescent visual impression typical of the style. The light color (SRM 3) reflects the pale malt base and soured character.

Aroma

The nose leads with bright citrus notes—lemon zest and light grapefruit—layered over soft spice from the base beer's white ale character. Gentle acidity frames the bouquet without sharpness, and a subtle malt sweetness provides quiet support. Fruit-forward and inviting, with no harsh or vinegary edges.

Taste

Entry is crisp and clean, with citrus brightness and controlled sourness that is soft rather than bracing. The mid-palate reveals a fuller malt body than the 3.1% ABV suggests, with white ale spice notes weaving through the fruit character. Acidity balances the sweetness without dominance, and a gentle tartness lingers on the sides of the tongue.

Finish

The finish is dry and moderately short, with lemon and grapefruit notes fading gradually into a clean, refreshing aftertaste. The soft acidity does not linger aggressively, instead leaving a pleasant crisp impression.
