CORIOLIS EFFECT ~ BAR HOP & SAWDUST CITY

Coriolis effect  is a Berliner weisse made in collaboration with Bar Hop, a bar in Toronto.  Bar Hop cuts the sourness of the beer with homemade raspberry or woodruff syrup.  I had this mouth puckering-ly sour beer by itself.  It pours a light hazy straw colour with a white head.  Nose is sour with notes of lemon, wheat and tart fruit.  Finish is tart, sour and a little bready. The beer is made with Lactobacillus Brevis (lactic fermentation) from Guelph's own Escarpment yeast bank. (Who knew there is a Yeast bank?)

BTW…In physics, the Coriolis effect is a deflection of moving objects when the motion is described relative to a rotating reference frame. In a reference frame with clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the left of the motion of the object; in one with counter-clockwise rotation, the deflection is to the right....also slang for a hang over.
