Weyerbacher Tarte Nouveau
- Name: Weyerbacher Tarte Nouveau, 3.9%, United States
- Appearance: Slightly hazy light orange, tiny amount of head. Weirdly, when the head died down it left some whiteness in the shape of a rose. So maybe some hallucinogenic effects in the aroma?
- Aroma: Sour fruits, lemon?
- Taste: Big on sourness, probably a bit of fruit in there. Pretty bad, since I'm not really into Berliner Weisse beers. Not totally horrible, though, because of the lemon/fruit.
