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 and tart with a lemony-citric fruit sharpness and no hop bitterness.

Crystal clear copper and light bronze coloured body with a very fast-dying tan head that fades incredibly fast. Aroma of sour vinegar, a touch of apples and pears, some light citrus notes and some very mild malts - not too much going on though, aside from the more astringent vinegar. Light-bodied; Subdued grainey and wheatie flavour with some very light citrus and pear flavours around with a bit of raisins and light plums around and some more fresh wheat flavour and a dose of pure caster sugar near the end. Aftertaste is incredibly mild with only some light malts, a touch of the vinegar and grain and a little dry, cleanser like flavour near the very end. Overall, a mild and very subdued beer with some vinegar and lightly soured notes complete with some grain and light malts, but nothing large at all. A decent beer, but nothing complex nor worth going out of your way for - a decent beer and one with relatively good character for the style and ABV, but just simple and easy. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Whole Foods in Foggy Bottom (Eye Street, NorthWest) in Washington, D.C. on 11-May-2015 for US$2,49 sampled at home in Washington on 23-January-2018.

Bottle from Bert’s Slightly hazy light golden color with a thin bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Tart cherries, lemons, light balsamic, light bready malt moderate earthy funk. More body than I was expecting for the abv. Not bad, somewhat of a cross between a Berliner and a Flanders Red.

A pale golden ale with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light lactic notes, light mineral notes, nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice tart sweet fruity malt with lactic acid, Epsom salts, light peach pulp, nice and refreshing. On tap at Eulogy.

12oz bottle from share on 6/11/16. Hazy golden pour, small frothy white head. Basic berliner weisse notes on the aroma and taste, wheat comes through, not completely obliterated by the slight sourness. Some honey sweetness, not too tart.

Bottle share. Amber orange color with a smaller beige head. Nose is mildly tart and a little bit of wheat. Tastes mild of sour/tart, a lingering bit in the end. Mild wheat and lemon grass. Not too shabby.

New Beer Dostributors, NYC bottle: pours orange with a small white head. Aroma is light berry funk. Taste is lightly sour. Kind if like a lemon lime seltzer with a tad more sugar and sourness. Pretty ok.
