Had my first Berliner Weisse from New Glarus yesterday. Damn! That’s some sour/tart stuff! I guess it’s an aquired taste that i haven’t found yet. For $10/4 pack, i’ll definitely give it another try! Do you guys add flavoring or drink as is? :?
I’ve never brewed one, but I like them with woodruff syrup. Tastes like Lucky Charms.

Magically delicious? 
My daughter bought me some Berliner Kindl Weisse in Berlin. The shop owner did not want to sell it to her without some syrup. I like it fine without any syrup.
A couple of months back the local brew pub did a Berliner Weisse, as a seasonal.
I had it with and without the syrup. The syrup really brightened it up, but either way it was wonderful. Straight-up it was sour, but not hard core like some sours. With the syrup it reminded me of those sour gummy bear candies.
I like it with AND without syrup. I’d probably have it with the syrup if I was just drinking, and without if I was having an entree.
I had my first sour a few weeks back. Jolly Pumpkin La Roja. It was outstanding! It is definitely a style I want to try more of. It was almost like a carbonated, oaky, sour wine but with some beer flavors as well. I bought a couple more so I can age at least one for a while. The other might get drank tonight.
