From Steamworks Brewing in Burnaby BC comes their latest release the "Tropical Tart Ale". The beer pours a cloudy orange colour with a white head. The aroma consists of passion fruit, pomegranate and an overall fruit juice base with sweetness and a hint of tartness. The flavour is of tartness up front but not overbearing, passion fruit, pomegranate and an overall tropical note, mineral notes but not overly sweet. The alcohol content comes in at 4.9% with an IBU of 15. This is going to be a very popular summer beer and I hope it hangs out all summer!
Commercial Description: Our new tropical tart ale is a true delight for the senses, pouring a beautiful deep hued gold, and leading with intense tropical fruit aromas. Superfruit Flavours of passionfruit and pomegranate are balanced with an unmistakable thirst quenching tartness; whisking you away to a care-free island paradise. Best enjoyed near a body of water.
