Getting My Beer On Rhinegeist Press Tart Beer Review

I am going local with this one as I decided to check out Press Tart from Rhinegeist here in Cincinnati. This local brewery has gained for many the impression of being an IPA brewery so maybe that is what led them to put out this Berliner Style Weisse Sour Fruit Styled beer made with Marionberries as well as Blueberries. They did not go it alone though, as they teamed up with 16-bit for this fruity and tart albeit light 4.4% ABV collaboration. For me, this brew did hit with the tartness to be expected and while I did get the berry, on my palate it tended to play closer to a cranberry feel. Maybe this was due to my lack of experience with Marionberries, either way, it did deliver with the fruit as mentioned. It was also a light and refreshing in its feel and the color and clarity were nice. A decent enough overall brew, and check out the video to see and hear more of my thoughts on this one.
