A Note on This Beer

We’re wild for Wild Barrel Brewing and their 2020 GABF Gold medal-winning Berliner Weisse series, Vice!

Today’s succulent version bursts with tart black currant juice, rolling over the tongue like a waterfall of luscious raspberries and cherries. It finishes with a satisfying pucker and lip-smacking tannins, like a glass of sparkling red wine.

Craft fan @Stephen R. calls it “Outstanding… probably the best Sour I’ve had!”

Thanks to this stunning example of Wild Barrel’s mastery, it’s no surprise that San Diegans flock to their two taprooms again and again.

But while San Diego can stay classy with this berrylicious brew, Vice rarely leaves the Southwest. So what are you waiting for? Crack open a can and beat the winter blues with the bright, black currant taste of summer!

it's sour but balanced. I don't know what a currant tastes like but it's probably similar to this

New to sours, the mango lychee is a little easier of a transition than this one. Refreshing but very sour.

This is so good. I don’t know if it’s beer or a 7-11 slurpee!

I was hoping for more of a black currant flavor but it is very good. Like a fruity vinegar.

Love that the sour really hits you when you take a sip, but mellows out to a nice sweet taste after!

Almost framboise like, but more tart because it’s currants. Tart, refreshing and a nice effervescent feeling on the tongue.

it was great. would be even better as a lactose sour

cooper121

This was surprisingly well balanced. the tanginess of the Currant offset by the bitterness of the hops.

Look, I don't really like sours, but this one grew on me as I drank it. It has a good balance of sweet and tart, the black currant flavor is refreshing and the low abv makes it a good weeknight beverage!
