Grand River Blackberry Wheat
Grand River Blackberry Wheat
Heard this is their next offering. Any thoughts?
That Raspberry Pils was a let down for me. Not the amount of berry flavour I'd prefer. I heard they served it for an event with real raspberries mixed in it, as a one-off. I bet that would have been fantastic!
What I REALLY wish is for some OCB to make a raspberry beer that rivals Morte Subite Frambroise, then I wouldn't have to pay $5 for a small bottle of delicious all the way from Belgium!

Me too, it's amazing they can make such a round-but-crisp, summery Bavarian style Pilsner that also marries so well with tart-sweet raspberry, but then Grand River are freaks of beer alchemy genius (at least much of the time.)JesseM wrote:Sounds good. Their rasberry Pils on cask at their beer club tasting I had last summer was probably the best fruit beer I've ever had, and I usually end up extremely unimpressed with fruit beers.
The wheat base with the blackberry may be a tad stickier and offer less structure, but we wil see!
