1809 Berliner Weisse if you want tart minerality and tradition,
Three Taverns Enchantress if you want fruit-forward approachability.
Both sit at 5% ABV and 10 IBU, so alcohol and bitterness aren't differentiators—it's about whether you're after that classic Berlin sour snap or a fruit sour with more immediate sweetness. The Briem is the purist's move; the Enchantress is the crowd-pleaser.

1809 Berliner Weisse
The 1809 hits you with this bright, almost saline pop—like someone's carbonated a lemon wedge mixed with mineral water. There's a delicate wheat base underneath, but the sourness is the main character here. It's dry, slightly funky (in the good Berliner way), and leaves your mouth feeling cleansed rather than coated. Genuinely refreshing in a way that makes you reach for another.
Three Taverns Enchantress
Enchantress leads with cranberry sweetness that's up front and friendly—no mystery, no philosophy, just good fruit. The sour backbone is there but softened by that berry character, making it feel more like a flavored sour than a traditional fermented one. It's smoother, less demanding, and honestly great if you want something tart but not challenging.
