I was talking to one of our beverage suppliers today. She told me that there commercial examples of a Berliner Weisse Beer available in Se MI. How can this be true?? I need the help of the SE MI Brog to find some Berliner Weisse Beer

Was she talking about some local brewery, or just that there are imported bottles in stores?

I've got these three brewed right here in Southern Minnesota in the second oldest family owned brewery in America...

I believe she was talking about imports. I have not even seen any from a local brewery. I was sure Jolly Pumpkin brewed one. If I ever get back down to A^2 I need to check or have the kid's check for me.

If you have Whole Foods you should be able to get this...

If I recall correctly, this place might not be to far for you to check out. Or just call them. They have aisle after aisle of import beer: http://merchantsfinewine.com/

It's where I used to go to get my German Hefeweisse before I started brewing my own.

Looks like they currently have:

Berliner Weisse 1809 Berliner Weisse
Berliner Weisse Bahnhoff Berliner Weisse

Bob, I just realized I know of a Berliner Weiss that is from a Michigan brewery- Bell's Brewery makes one called Oarsman Ale that is actually quite good.
