True to its "fruity" (Himbeere is German for Raspberry) name, this summery drink, Berliner Weisse-style, features refreshing, mildly sour, summery components. With its 3.8% alcohol and the appealing pink crown of foam, it is wonderfully suitable as an aperitif. The mash of Premium Pilsner Malt is augmented by small portions of CARAHELL® and creamy wheat malt, all supported by Callista, a hop packed with etheric red grapefruit and raspberry aromatics. In the lagering tank, the brew receives an addition of puréed fresh raspberries, resulting in a soft, rounded mouthfeel and a crisp, dry finish.
Served solo, this ale is a satisfying, low-alcohol aperitif that pairs well with assorted cheeses, a Wiener Schnitzel, a Cordon Bleu, or such sweet deserts as strawberry or raspberry tiramisu. It can also be a great base for a summer cocktail!
