Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer Camp: Dry-Hopped Berliner-Style Weisse

We wanted to make a beer that was a bit outside of both breweries' normal wheelhouses, so together we chose to create a twist on the classic, tart, Berliner Weisse. We're playing off the slightly sour twang of the base beer by adding heaps of dry-hopped flavor to complement the tartness with citrusy and fruit-forward hop notes. The primary yeast strain is Sierra Nevada's famous Kellerweis wheat beer yeast, which imparts notes of banana and clove, blending seamlessly with the hops to create a dry, white-wine-like flavor that is as crisp and refreshing as anything we've tried.
