So it's a fruity berliner. Tough beer to make well, IMO. I guess I'll have to try and brew one eventually.

Miami Weiss FTW

 

Seems like a stretch to call it a new style.  Rye IPA isn't even a style.

At this point it seems more like a fad than a style.  Think I'll wait and see if it makes it to the "trend" stage.

Unless this "style" takes off, I'd say its marketing crap.

Yes.  Tradition is you order a "stop light."  Three short glasses of weiss, one with cherry syrup, one with lemon and one with woodruff.

It's made like a fruit beer instead of using syrup and extract.

I am with you Rich on the marketing aspect.  It is a little too contrived

I wouldn't doubt that it's delicious beer though. Florida style though... I think not.

 

Brewery in Dunedin called 7th sun makes a key lime berliner wiess. Last year it was delicious. This year it was just mediocre. That style is really tough to do well.

Night Shift Brewing in Massachusetts makes a sour blueberry beer they call "Mainer Weisse", but I haven't heard them claim that it's a new style.
