COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A refreshing, gently tart, German-style wheat beer. Our take on the classic Berliner has a blend of citric and fruit notes with nods to cider and sauvignon blanc. We go through two fermentations with this beer to offer an interesting complexity in an amazingly light and drinkable beer. Athena is a tribute to our home that shares a name with the greek embodiment of wisdom and curiosity. Given our affinity to the peculiar and curious, we think Athena is a perfect ambassador for the Classic City.

TkmLinus (628) - POOLER, Georgia, USA - MAR 20, 2019
UPDATED: MAR 20, 2019 12 oz can. Smells like salt and something that has soured. Cloudy and straw yellow in color. Tart and a little sour, reminds me of a shandy. Lemony taste in there, refreshing. Would be excellent while out on the water. Has a tart and sour aftertaste.

UPDATED: DEC 15, 2018 Can. Lemony citrus aroma with notes of wheat, white wine and some grassy hops. Pours cloudy, pale golden colored with a thin white head that has decent retention and some lacing. Starts with tart lemony citrus and wheat malt flavors as well as a lively mouthfeel. Finishes dry with vinous white wine and some grassy hop flavors. Pretty good Berliner.

UPDATED: NOV 17, 2018 Found in can from a friend. Pours a hazy light yellow. Medium sour aroma. The aroma does not match the taste, which is a good thing. Initial light sour, but a good mix of flavors. Good late summer option and would drink again.

Smells like lemon and sauerkraut. Very cloudy and milky with a light yellow hue. First and foremost-tart. Very refreshing and a good example of a Berliner weisse. The final tastes on the tongue are wheat, honey and floral like a hint of jasmine. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
