  • Two dates on the bottle: 03/23/15 and 09/23/15. Brewed on, bottle on, consume on, etc?

    Pours with a slight haze. Served cold. Minimal, almost no, foam. White and thin. No lacing.

    Aroma is white wine like, possibly pear. Light tart, thoughts of brett. Overall, meager aromatics.

    Taste is wine like up front, once again, pear is included. Middle gives way to a sweet orange which lingers into the finish. Sticks around.

    Light up front with building body. Still crisp. Carbonation is almost absent. Somewhat dry.

    Interesting. Don't know if it is good or bad. The end into the finish is difficult to describe and the building body/sweetness just doesn't do it for me. Enjoy!

Beer Notes
  • Tarte Nouveau, 3.9% ABV, is kettle-soured with lactobacillus. This tart beer pours pale yellow with a large, dense, white head. Tarte is a refreshing brew with a dry finish that’s perfect for picnics, enjoying next to the pool, post leaf raking celebrations or snowball fight victory dances. Honestly, it’s pretty much perfect for every situation.

    Originally, Tarte Nouveau debuted in March of 2013 as our Brewers’ Select offering, Zulu. Zulu was an experiment in making a new Weyerbacher sour that we could run through draft systems and our packaging equipment without risking any sort of contamination by the funky souring bacteria. Zulu not only helped pave the way to Tarte Nouveau, it also paved the way to our nineteenth anniversary beer!
