    I once ran across a Berliner Weisse at a brewer’s festival that made excellent use of pickle juice. I had to try it out of curiosity, and while it was too much on the palate to drink many more than one, had a lived in the area I would have had one every evening. I wish I remembered the brewery so I could recommend it.

      This is how I always understood Berliner Weisse: it’s more a basis for a drink than a beer in its own right.

      But I think most Berliner Weisse are already sold with some taste added.

        It’s certainly a beer in its own right, but that’s simply a matter of definition and production. I know it has a history of being served mixed, but I’ve certainly come across it served on its own a non-trivial number of times.
