Style

Neo-Berliner Weisse

Our refreshing neo-Berliner Weisse

Based on a traditional Berliner Weisse, Festina Pêche is fermented with lactic cultures to produce its acidic (or green apple-like) character and delicately hopped. To soften the intense sourness, a Berliner Weisse is typically served with a dash of essence of woodruff or raspberry syrup. However, with Festina Pêche, the natural peach sugars are eaten by the yeast and the fruit complexity is woven into both the aroma and the taste of the beer, so no need to doctor it with syrup ... just open and enjoy!

As the second beer in our 2025 Season-Ales series (previously known as our Art-Series), Festina Pêche is sporting some incredible artwork by our pal Drew Millward!

Did you know...

There are only a few breweries left in Berlin still brewing the Berliner Weisse style, which is characterized by its intense tartness (some say sour).
